Design of the Year

Design of the Year (some even call it with the ambitions name - The Oscar of the Design...) is the London Museum of Design's annual Award for the most innovative and interesting Design from all over the world.
The Award is given to seven different categories: Architecture, Digital, Fashion, Furniture, Graphic, Product and Transport. It is sponsored by Brit Insurance (that probably uses the platform to show that Insurance companies are not only what we think...)
The winners of last year (2011) Award were the British Designer Samuel Wilkinson and the Product Designer Company - Hulger for Plumen 001. They won the Award for their stunning redesign of the low energy light bulb.
Category Award winners and the overall winner of the Year Award 2012 will be announced in April. To see the nominees for the different categories click here.
