Design has become an important catalyst for innovation, economic competitiveness and better living, in a world where ideas matter more than ever. Good design transforms, improves, connects and challenges. P*DA believes that together, we can create a better world by design.

So if you're keen to submit your work, email us to register your interest and you'll receive a submissions info package in September. If you're keen to nominate, email us with the name of the designer/design project, contact details if possible, and 1-2 lines on why you want to nominate them.

The President*s Design Award (P*DA), jointly organized by DesignSingapore Council (Dsg) and the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), celebrates the impact of design in enabling economic transformation; raising quality of life; and advancing the Singapore brand, culture and connecting communities. The award also recognizes ground-breaking achievements in the field of design. It also encompasses all design disciplines, including emerging practices like systems and strategic design - taking into account the broad and evolving nature of design. As such, P*DA is more than an award - it is envisioned to be a platform that educates and raises awareness about the transformational power of design.

Our latest crop of P*DA 2018 recipients had embarked on meaningful and impactful programmes throughout the year to showcase design excellence island-wide. We have conducted several forums, networking sessions, panel discussions, international engagement and showcases in New York, London at the D&AD Creative Festival 2019 and the most recent Barcelona Design Week 2019. For more information of our past programmes, check out our stories here!
