About this Event
The world of design should make us happy.
Each year, Design Truth delivers a student award programme built around providing real-world, paid opportunities to students in leading design studios.
This culimates in a 400-person industry celebration held at Central Saint Martins University - an iconic London location fitting to host the greatest young design talent the UK (& Ireland) has to offer.
You will have the opportunity to meet our finalists, judges and network with industry peers.
We see our awards as a celebration for the young talent finishing their studies and now entering the world of work.
With youth unemployment in the UK at the highest level since 2015, our awards feel more important than ever.
Our evening celebration begins at 18:00, but the opportunity to see the work and meet our finalists is available at Central Saint Martins from 15:00.
You will not need a ticket for the exhibition (please spread the word) but you will need a ticket for the evening celebration.
Our two winners will receive paid internships with Studio Wood & Sky. Design Truth will also be providing a £2500 cash prize.
Food, drink, exceptional vibes and live entertainment will be provided during the evening.
Please come and show your support to the next generation.
