About the Awards
Welcome to the 10th Annual Institute of Designers in Ireland Awards.
The 2008 IDI Design Awards took place on Wednesday the 8th of October at the Round Room, Mansion House, Dublin 2.
The Awards is an occasion to celebrate the excellent standard of design achieved by designers on the island of Ireland for 2007/2008.
It is also an opportunity for the IDI to promote this standard to a commercial audience.
Exceptional achievements are worth communicating which is why all winning entries will be promoted to local, national and international press and trade publications and through our affiliations with international bodies such as the International Federation of Interior Designers, the Bureau of European Designers Associations, the International Council of Graphic Design Associations, the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design and the European Council of Interior Architects. All finalists will also be profiled in both the IDI Members directory and the 2007/2008 IDI “Best of Irish Design” book to be made available to all members, the general public and commercial enterprise.
The presentation of outstanding design entries will be exhibited at the awards ceremony and in a travelling exhibition to be held post-awards.
On behalf of the Institute of Designers in Ireland we would like to wish all entrants the best of luck.
