Invigorating. Powerful. Stylish. Three words that define the pulse for the epicentre of world design. The same ethos encapsulates the spirit of the French Design Awards, a global celebration of architectural, interior, product and packaging design excellence that embodies these distinct qualities.
Join us in acknowledging the minds that are reimagining living spaces, breaking the moulds of varied products, and sculpting the architectural future. Embark on this journey into the exciting world of the French Design Awards today and celebrate the power of design to shape the world.
Register and submit with ease - French Design Awards brings a hassle-free experience, with user-friendly online processes exclusively designed just for you.
At the French Design Awards, we invite all designers to contribute, regardless of whether their designs are in-progress, finalised, or purely conceptual. Victors are selected based on a single entry, not a collective portfolio, thereby emphasising the importance of careful submission selection.
In an endeavour to promote financial accessibility, the French Design Awards has implemented a cost-effective entry system, while utilising a $30 annual administrative fee. This fee covers a wide array of expenses, including printing, mailing, and data management. Thus, every participant incurs the same economical fee, yielding greater value for those submitting multiple entries.

* You may submit an entry into multiple categories at the same time. The first Category will be charged as per the original submission fee. Additional categories (2 or more) will be charged as such.
Rather than increasing the fee for each entry, fees are only charged in order to cover administrative costs like printing, mailing and data organization. For this reason, each participant is charged a flat $30 annual administrative fee. When all participants pay the same low fee, those submitting more than one entry will actually pay less than if fees were on a sliding scale.
