Smart Design, Stephen Doyle, Rodarte Among 2010 National Design Award Winners
Posted in: Uncategorized
The jury has spoken, and the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum today announced the winners of the 2010 National Design Awards, bestowed annually in fields ranging from architecture and interiors to fashion and communication design. So who’s taking home swirly asterisk statuettes this year? The lifetime achievement award goes to Jane Thompson, founding editor of dearly departed I.D. magazine, while another I.D. alum, Ralph Caplan, has been named “Design Mind.” After mounting Gregory Crum‘s outstanding “quicktake” exhibition on the wonders of Rodarte, the museum will award the top honor in fashion design to the five-year-old label, which earned a finalist nod last year (along with a major CFDA award win). Another 2009 finalist that has advanced to the winner’s circle is Smart Design, which will take home the National Design Award for product design. The communication design category belongs to the incredible Stephen Doyle, while Maira Kalman and John Jay of Wieden+Kennedy received finalist nods. The winners will receive their awards on October 14 at a gala dinner at Cipriani 42nd Street in New York. Here’s the full list of 2010 National Design Award winners and finalists:
