Dutch Design Awards
The Dutch Design Awards honour the best Dutch designs of the past year. These are designs that stand out in several areas: firstly for their relevance and impact, but also for the extent to which they relate to their own field. From new crossovers and collaborations, to craftsmanship and materialisation, a stimulating approach or an attractive appearance.
Proud and gratefuls
The jury of the Dutch Design Awards (DDA) 2020 has nominated Auping Evolve in the Product category. We are proud of this nomination and grateful for your beautiful words.
“Royal Auping demonstrates that rich history and innovation can go hand in hand and have a huge impact with such a tangible consumer product. It shows the importance of design-led system change at this scale.”

The jury of independent Dutch design experts judged and selected the winners based on the following criteria: impact, distinctiveness, expressiveness and production method. The other nominations in this category are “The Interceptor” by The Ocean Cleanup in collaboration with Fabrique and “The object is absent” by curators Alexandre Humbert, Lucas Maassen, Tom Loois and Angelique Spaninks.
