This year is special. The 2020 edition was launched even more enthusiastically than ever before. In today's historic moment, the intent was to encourage and support work whose production required great strength, ingenuity and sacrifice. To celebrate a possible future, without fear.
Studio Libeskind, Kelly Wearstler, Rossana Orlandi, Domitilla Dardi, Formafantasma and DIMORESTUDIO are just some of the names of the over 60 jurors called upon to evaluate the submissions. The jury will vote to define a longlist, a first selection that will move into the competition's final phase. The winners selected from the longlist will be announced during the first week of November.
Designed again this year by the Valencia-based studio MUT Design, the brand trophy is the result of renewed collaboration with ADA 2020 partner De Castelli. This sculptural object plays with the oxidation of metal and the optical illusion of the Möbius strip.
In addition to oxidized metal, Salvatori's natural stone will be used to produce a new trophy for the designers of the winning products. The trophy was conceived by one of the most acclaimed names on the international design scene, Cyprus-born Michael Anastassiades.
