Professional Edition Award Trophy - The Omega Particle
When you win the A' Design Award via Professional Edition nomination pathway, you get eligible for the compleat A' Design Prize, without any winner fees. Within the scope of the A' Design Prize, professional edition laureates of the A' Design Award gain a very large list of benefits to support them, these benefits include but not limited to for example your invitation to La Notte Premio A' - A' Design Award's black-tie red-carpet gala night and award ceremony where you walk the red carpet, enjoy gala night photography and where you are individually called to stage to obtain your winner kits at stage that contains the hardcover yearbook in which your designs in public (non-concealed) categories for which you had provided a license and declaration are printed full page (with typesetting, pagination and layout services provided free of charge by the A' Design Award), in addition to your winner certificate that is already printed and framed for you (and if you have an enterprise, agency, professional partnership or other multiple entity account type, we also print your team-members' certificates free of charge). Within your winner kit you also find gifts and merchandise we have designed for you, including but not limited to a very premium gold flag, as well as special ultra-premium notebooks by Museo del Design. As a professional edition laureate, you get all these items free of charge at gala stage and you can also order them for delivery if you cannot attend the gala. Among the physical components of the A' Design Award's winner kit, the most relevant item is perhaps our Omega Particle award trophy that comes in black luxury box. The Omega Particle award trophy comes in different colours (Gold for Platinum and Gold A' Design Award Winners, Silver Plated or Nickel Color for Silver A' Design Award Winners, Rose Gold or Bronze Color for Bronze A' Design Award Winners and Metallic Red or Raw Stainless Steel for Iron A' Design Award Winners). We started the Omega Particle as a 3D printed item in 2008 and it was one of the World's first 3D printed trophies ever, however now, we are using jewellery techniques to prepare them, sometimes we still distribute 3D printed versions of the trophies when available (so you may use either a 3D printed metal trophy or lost wax jewellery cast metal trophy), both of them look super interesting, the 3D printed metal trophy has a unique character for you can feel the lines, which communicates the technology behind the trophy, on the other hand the jewellery made A' Design Award trophies are super smooth, where you feel it as a prestigious item. We have designed the trophy to have sharp (of course slightly rounded for usability) geometric outer edges and smooth and organic inner section, this is done on purpose as it carries the juxtaposition of infinite freedom, given restrictions, we have designed A' Design Award's Omega Particle Award Trophy to capture the soul and essence of design process. During Gala, you can also order any additional trophies for team members. A' Design Award's Professional Edition Award Trophy, the Omega Particle, fits in a jewellery box, it is designed as a memento that you can carry with you, to bring you luck, indeed when the trophy is in vertical position, you can notice its resembles to number eight which is a divine number in many cultures, so you can see that it has an auspicious design in vertical position and when the A' Design Award's Omega Trophy is rest on ground, you can imagine the infinity symbol forming, representing infinite possibilities of the design process, indeed the outer form of the Omega Particle is octahedron, more specifically a tetragonal dipyramid, square dipyramid (bipyramid), in the past these were also called tetragonal protopyramid and tetragonal deuteropyramid and it is also a tetragonal crystal. Indeed, A' Design Award's Omega Particle has a tetragonal dipyramid shape, also called as bipyramid, square-based tetragonal bipyramid, square dipyramid and it is a tetragonal octahedron (A' Design Award's Omega Particle is not a regular octahedron, it is extremely similar to an octahedron but the triangles are elongated) as such could also be called a prolate square dipyramid (indicating elongation clearly) and tetragonal double pyramid. A' Design Award's Omega Particle is highly symmetrical, with s tetragonal dipyramid shape that further symbolizes harmony, balance and equilibrium, indeed you can stack our trophies. Symmetry in geometry often symbolizes stability and completeness. Two pyramids joined base-to-base commonly symbolize the union or connection between earthly (base) and spiritual (apex) realms, it is the connection of heaven and earth and in design sense, it is the intersection of form and function, utility and aesthetics, infinite creativity and constraints. When we present you the Professional Edition Award Trophy, the Omega Particle trophy comes in its own box. We are happy to present it to you free of charge together with its box. The A' Design Award's Omega Particle has a truly interesting shape and the A' Design Award trophy is very different from the trophies you may get used to seeing. When placed among other trophies, the A' Design Award trophy differentiates itself with its features and such is a great conversation starter. We have commissioned the design of the A' Design Award trophy to OMC² Design Studios in Italy, which created a rather original design that not only is interesting in its form but its projections are also interesting as we use the isometric projections from top, right, front for developing the symbolic language of A' Design Awards as well as you can see the silhouette of the A' Design Award's Omega Particle trophy on the A' Design Award logo itself. The most important reason why the A' Design Award trophy is highly valuable is neither its very original shape nor its good design, but the fact that it is extremely exclusive. When you submit a work to A' Design Award, you will recall that we provide a free preliminary score and confidential feedback to help you improve your design presentation, the aim of this preliminary feedback is to uplift and enhance your presentation to highest level possible and it is required for two reasons, first when you win, a good presentation (high-quality high-resolution visuals as well as descriptions in compliance with our presentation guidelines) increase likelihood of press coverage, but most importantly when we make all presentations equally good, the presentations have a less weight in jurors' decisions, i.e. we reduce and remove presentation biases with our preliminary round in order to ensure jury can vote your entries more fair and just, without bias. Following your preliminary feedback and presentation standardization and uplift, the jury votes on your entries following blind peer-review process where each entry is voted anonymously (jury does not know whose works they are voting on - i.e. names are concealed), this helps reduce bias further and makes the competition more just and also your entries are voted on pre-established evaluation criteria, which is also proper and reduces biases by providing guidance to jurors. Indeed during voting process we also conduct a scientific study to ask also how to vote on the entries, this is done to improve the evaluation criteria each year based on new advances in state of art in the industry as well as new expectations in the market, so we collect data from jurors to make it better, which makes the competition more fair and just. Moreover, A' Design Award jury is composed from hundreds of jurors from almost all major countries, this makes the A' Design Award & Competition culturally inclusive and representative, this makes the competition more fair and just, especially when it comes to its ability to judge designs from diverse cultures and backgrounds. Moreover, A' Design Award's Grand Jury Panel is composed of academics, university professors, scholars, design professionals, designers, architects, engineers, journalists, media members, editors, as well as design managers, CEOs and marketing managers of large brands, the composition of jury, with practicing designers, academics, business people and journalists, makes the jury industrially and perspectively inclusive, i.e. the A' Design Award jury can approach the work from different perspectives, which makes the competition more ethical and just. Then the final jury scores have their standard deviations calculated, scores normalized and sorted to determine the best designs; so the A' Design Award evaluation starts with bias removal, follows anonymous voting on pre-established evaluation criteria and concludes with score normalization, then we also filter entries against potential intellectual property infringements via our license and declaration process - this is all extremely ethical, just, inclusive, democratic and meritocratic system and it makes the A' Design Award highly prestigious, especially when you combine with the fact that A' Design Award has hundreds of millions of page views, millions of video views, billions of impressions each year, the A' Design Award is truly prestigious (it is fair and it is also famous), now when you get the A' Design Award trophy, you get a trophy that is seen by billions, coveted by millions and given only to a select few top designers, star architects and leading brands each year. Having the A' Design Award trophy means you become part of an exclusive elite group of industry leaders that make a difference with good design, especially because you will remember that the mission of A' Design Award is to make the world a better place with good design, by promoting, advertising, marketing and branding good design worldwide to create a global appreciation and understanding of good design to derive demand for superior products and projects that benefit and advance society, i.e. to create a positive spiral of growth for good design, to create a better future. When you hold the A' Design Award trophy in your hands, you hold an avatar of good design, the physical manifestation of good design, a symbol to make the world a good place, a symbol of positive change. The A' Design Award's Omega Particle trophy, given free of charge to all professional edition laureates who attend the gala (or send via winner kits to those who order their winner kits for delivery) represents your recognition for design excellence, for making the world a better place with your good design, it is prestigious, it is exclusive and it is obtained fair, meritocratic and ethical and it is a great honour, it is the crystallization of your design excellence, a powerful memento of your grand, international recognition, it is the physical representation of your design prowess and we are proud that you have it and that's why rather than selling you the trophy, we give it to your free during gala (or include it within the physical components of A' Design Award winners' kit when you request the shipment of your winner kit), we created the Omega Particle, to remind you that your good design makes a huge difference. We would like to remind you that the A' Design Award's Omega Particle award trophy is not the only benefit that are granted to the A' Design Award winner designers who are attending our gala and activating our services. For example, when you attend the gala, in addition to the trophy, you also get the book in which your work is published full page and you are credited as co-author, you get the certificate of excellence in design, already printed and framed and you get a lot of merchandise, indeed the fact that there is a red-carpet black-tie gala where you take the stage is a benefit in itself.
