WHAT IS
THE KOKUYO DESIGN AWARD?
The KOKUYO DESIGN AWARD is
an international product design competition
that’s all about bringing together proposals
for projects the future needs and giving them form.
We received a total of 1,031 entries
from 58 countries all around the world last year
and are actively working on turning winning entries
into commercial products.
Some of the 20 past entries that have been made
into products
include the Kadokeshi eraser, the Nameless Paints, and the True Measure ruler.
Through the process of thinking deeply
about the tools
people use in their everyday working, learning, and living scenes,
the competition aims to give form to the possibilities of design and the power of products.
Be sure to submit your design for the KOKUYO DESIGN AWARD 2023.
