We’ve been covering the A’ Design Award & Competition since 2022, and since then they’ve continued to expand into one of the world’s largest and most diverse international design competitions, celebrating outstanding work across architecture, communication design, fashion, interiors, products and more. With entries for the 2026/2027 edition now open, designers and brands can register today for a chance to put their work on the international stage.

In this feature, we’re turning our attention to industrial and product design, an expansive field covering furniture, lighting, electronics, home appliances, vehicles, watches and countless other objects that shape our everyday lives.

We’ve selected some of our favorite award-winning projects from across these categories, highlighting designs that combine fresh thinking, thoughtful functionality and a strong visual identity. From clever everyday objects to ambitious mobility concepts and beautifully resolved pieces of furniture, there’s plenty here to explore. Let’s take a look.

The projects above offer just a glimpse of the enormous range of work recognized by the A’ Design Award, showing how good product design can improve familiar objects, introduce entirely new ideas or simply make everyday experiences more enjoyable.

If you have a product, object or industrial design project of your own, registrations for the 2026/2027 edition are currently open. You can register here, with the next submission deadline set for February 28, 2027.

You can also see more award-winning designs across furniture, architecture, packaging, graphics, technology and many other disciplines.
