Design Educates Awards 2025
Laka Foundation has opened the 7th edition of the Design Educates Awards (DEAwards) and is calling for projects, for 2025 that impact society.
Design Educates Awards (DEAwards) recognize, showcase, and promote globally the best ideas and implementations of architecture and design. The competition also brings together a community of creatives who emphasize the meaning of the true added value of their projects.
Laureates of the main prizes and honorable mentions will receive: certificates and winning labels, inclusion in the yearbook, participation in the exhibition with confirmation by certificates, Awards Ceremony in Germany with photo documentation, press kits, as well as promotion by the media sponsors and partners.
The Design Educates Awards (DEAwards) recognize exceptional projects, that are remarkable not only for their aesthetics, but also for their impact on society, in the following disciplines:
- Architecture
- Products
- Other Design Disciplines
The call is open for creative, innovative projects (completed or concepts from the last 5 years) of any scale that, in addition to excellent aesthetics, incorporate added value — such as educational potential, storytelling elements, the stimulation of critical thinking, the ability to influence users’ emotions or behaviour, and an impact on perception or encompass other similar values.
The awards ceremony will take place during the Architecture in Foyer 2025 conference at the Solarlux Campus in Germany (Melle, Lower Saxony, Germany) in September 2025. The conference will be hosted by Solarlux GmbH, the strategic partner of the awards.
