About the German Design Council

Since its foundation on the initiative of the German Bundestag in 1953, the German Design Council has had the mission of representing the German design scene on the highest level. It has thereby developed into one of the world’s leading centres of expertise for brands and design. The German Design Council is the organiser of many national and international design competitions. In addition to the German Design Award, the institution also organises industry-specific competitions such as the Automotive Brand Contest or the Iconic Awards. Besides, the magazine ‘designreport’ was set up by the German Design Council since 1972. The foundation Stiftung Deutsches Design Museum, established by the German Design Council, promotes and communicates design to a wide audience.
