AIGA’s national design competitions celebrate exemplary design and
demonstrate the power of design.
|
Since its founding in 1914, AIGA has been dedicated to demonstrating the value of design. The organization, its members and its chapters honor design practitioners and their work in a number of ways.

AIGA’s “Justified” competition
recognizes case studies that demonstrate the value of design in a clear,
compelling and accessible way. Effective design will nearly always
reflect the powerful emotional draw of creativity, inspiration and
simplicity; and yet
today, for design to be truly effective, it must also serve the client’s
very
specific needs. With this
in mind, the 2012 “Justified” competition honors 18 exemplary case studies of
design solutions, each of which successfully demonstrate the value of design.
