Clerkenwell Design Week Launches New Product Awards Program
Clerkenwell Design Week, the U.K.’s premier design festival, has introduced the CDW 2025 Product Awards in partnership with SANDOW DESIGN GROUP. The program aims to celebrate innovation, sustainability, and excellence in product design.
The CDW Product Awards will recognize products across categories including furniture, lighting, flooring, acoustics, kitchen and bath, surfaces, outdoor, textiles, and storage and will include special honors for products that showcase exceptional innovation in sustainability, craftsmanship, material innovation, and accessibility. Winning manufacturers and exhibitors will have a unique opportunity to showcase their brand and gain exclusive exposure across SANDOW DESIGN GROUP’s publication platforms, including METROPOLIS, INTERIOR DESIGN, and DESIGN MILK.
“While we have always had a global reach, this partnership is special,” says AJ Paron, executive vice president and design futurist for SANDOW DESIGN GROUP. “We’re excited to branch out into the UK and Europe with our brands. We feel like there’s a lot of innovation coming from there and this is an opportunity for us to broaden what we cover and bring it to the design community.”
Submissions are now open, with the early bird deadline set for February 14, 2025, and the final deadline on March 28, 2025. Winners will be celebrated during Clerkenwell Design Week 2025. For more details and to submit entries, visit clerkenwelldesignweek.com/cdw-product-awards.
