Categories

This list includes the most popular A' Design Award & Competition categories, ranked by number of participants and winners. The top design award categories are relatively more competitive than other categories due to higher number of participants; these design competition categories are therefore harder to win due to high level of competition among talents. To view the most popular design award categories click here.

These categories are different from the regular competition categories by having their results hidden from the public: Results will not be published online, and their winners will not receive the PR Campaign that is intended for other categories due to the secret, private or hidden nature of the products and designs. However, winners will be able to use a special award winner logo in their communications and marketing and may be entitled to some other benefits. Learn more about the concealed categories here.

• If you are having difficulties in choosing the right category, simply register and upload your design and wait for the preliminary checking service which is provided free of charge. Alternatively, you could submit your design for the category 24 for hard to classify projects. If you are wondering why there are so many categories, we invite you to read more about it here: networking effects. For an unabridged list of categories, click here.
