The Design Museum, Designs of the Year 2012

Each year the Design museum London holds the Design awards; ‘The Oscars of the design world’ showcasing the most innovative and progressive designs throughout the world. There are examples of Architecture, Digital, Fashion, Furniture, Graphics, Product and Transport.

The exhibition is a must-see in the design calendar, and Sister's design team headed down there at the weekend. Every year we see some of the best design work, but this year it really excelled, “probably the most impressive I’ve been to. All the categories were brilliant, but the Architecture was mind-blowing”. In a year which we possibly face another economic meltdown; design is still progressing, breaking barriers and being more exciting than ever.

Here are a few of Adam’s picks:
The Guangzhou Opera House, China
The Moses Bridge in Fort De Roovere, Holland
London 2012 Velodrome (Drive past it every week, nearly forgot how beautiful it is)
Becks – Green Box Project
One Thousand Cranes for Japan
The Carbon Black Wheelchair by Andrew Slorance

The Category award winners and the overall winner will be announced at an event in April. But the show runs until July 15th, so get down there.
