Design Organization of the Year
For the company whose design organization moved the whole business forward — structure, craft and influence, judged as one.
[The Design Codex Awards]
Craft has enough trophies.
Design awards celebrate objects and individuals — the poster, the app, the name on the stage. The Design Codex Awards look at what those prizes never see: the teams, the systems, the work done in the shadows by the people who make the difference.
Apply[The distinctions]
Design Leadership Excellence
For a leader whose way of leading design — the standards set, the teams built — stands as a reference among peers.
Design Impact Award
For design work whose impact is measured outside the design team — on the product, the business, the people it serves.
[Why “Codex”?]
The awards carry the name of the Design Codex — our referential of design organizations. What we reward is what we study: how design is actually organized, led, and made to matter inside companies.
