Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum<\/a> has announced the winners of the 2018 National Design Awards<\/a>, which recognize design excellence and innovation across 10 categories. The White House Millennium Council launched the awards program—including its special events, panel discussions, and workshops—in 2000 as a way to promote design as a vital tool in shaping the world. Award recipients will be honored at a gala dinner and ceremony on Thursday, October 18, in the Arthur Ross Terrace and Garden at Cooper Hewitt.<\/p>\n

“All 10 of this year’s winners present a powerful design perspective and body of work that is at once inclusive and deeply personal, accompanied by great achievement, humanity, and social impact,” says Caroline Baumann, director of Cooper Hewitt. An interdisciplinary jury of design leaders and educators selected the winners after reviewing award submissions from nominations submitted by design experts and enthusiasts. This year’s jury consisted of Diane Jones Allen (Design Jones<\/a>); Jeffrey Bernett (CDS<\/a>); Valerie Casey<\/a> (Applied Theory); Rand Elliott<\/a> (Elliott + Associates Architects<\/a>); Adi Gil (threeASFOUR<\/a>); Jenny Lam (Oracle<\/a>); Doug Powell (IBM<\/a>); and Ann Willoughby (Willoughby Design<\/a>).<\/p>\n
