Selection Process
After two intensive days of evaluating inspiring and diverse works, the jury made a difficult decision and chose 81 projects out of over 700 international entries. Of this shortlist, 12 projects are going to win gold, while 8 and 15 will receive silver and bronze, respectively; the remaining 46 entries will be honoured with distinctions.
In a first round, the judges rated all of the projects entered online. The projects scoring highest were sent to designaustria and assessed physically. Over 300 graphic designers and illustrators from 27 countries submitted their works, a little more than 20 per cent of which made it to the shortlist. Among the participants were numerous members of designaustria and its partner organisations, in addition to a number of promising new talents.
