Chosen by an expert panel from 91 designs across different disciplines, the seven winners of the Brit Insurance Design Awards will now contend for the prestigious accolade of Brit Insurance Design of the Year 2009. The trophy home takers will be revealed at an awards dinner at the Design Museum on 18th March 2009.
The winning entries represent a snapshot of contemporary design and demonstrate the role that design plays at a global level. Ranging from Shepard Fairey’s iconic Obama poster, to the economically sustainable Magno Wooden Radio and the multi-functional landmark of the New Oslo Opera House, the international winners are spread across Indonesia, Colombia, USA, Norway and Italy.
