José Agostinho, CEO of TOMI WORLD highlights the importance of this award in the area of design for society: “We work daily to bring more quality of life to people and cities and this is the international recognition of the fundamental role of TOMI. The TOMI For All in particular is another innovation that distinguishes TOMI as an essential for society, accessibility and inclusion.”
The European Product Design Award announced the results of the third edition of the competition on 9 July, where hundreds of projects from more than 75 countries competed in various areas of Design. The international jury is constituted by independent designers, clients, design educators and editors who recognize products that aim to improve everyday life with practical and well-thought-out creations.
