event seal

The intention of any reputable design event should be to promote the value of design and the professional competency of designers. Where you see this seal, you know that the organising body—an organisation that is recognised as an ICoD Member—strongly upholds the importance of international practice standards to ensure the protection of designers. The seal infers good practice and consistency with international standards.

The ICoD Member Event seal confirms that the body organising the event has pledged to follow international standards for best practice, a set of guidelines ensuring that the event is ethical and respects the integrity of designers, the design process and the value of design. These standards are outlined in the ICoD Best Practice documents:

• Organising Design Award Competitions
• Serving as a Juror for Design Award Competitions
