ABOUT DDA
Dutch Design Awards (DDA) has been leading in the interpretation of excellent Dutch design for many years. DDA not only looks ahead, but also back: to our design traditions and the great impact that the Dutch design mentality has in the world. Dutch design is now a global concept and perhaps even a figure of speech. DDA's goal is to go beyond rewarding the best design: they want to keep the conversation about Dutch design going. With a great deal of openness and curiosity, they therefore facilitate exchanges between designers and curators, the public and professionals. In this way, they continue to emphasise the essential impact of design on society and to contribute to the development of the profession. Thanks to the BNO and DesignLink, Dutch Design Awards saw the light of day in 2003 as the Dutch Design Awards. Since 2005, DDA has had an office in the design capital of Eindhoven. With the competition, the Award Show and a retrospective exhibition, DDA shows and rewards the best in the field of Dutch design and brings winners to the attention of colleagues, the press and the general public. DDA is part of the Dutch Design Foundation and is one of the highlights of Dutch Design Week, which attracts over 350,000 visitors annually.
