The MUSE Product Design Awards celebrates the creators of products that enrich lives and shape experiences with elegance and ingenuity. This category honors designers who turn ideas into reality, creating products that are both functional and beautifully crafted.
We invite product designers and companies to showcase their most exceptional work. Whether a seasoned innovator or a new voice in design, this is your opportunity for global recognition.
Join us in celebrating products that go beyond utility, embodying the artistry and vision that make everyday objects truly remarkable.
Architects, builders, contractors, developers, engineers, business owners are encouraged to submit work that is in prototype or complete*.
Winners are determined by one entry, and not an entire body of work, so careful selection should be observed.

* You may submit an entry into multiple categories at the same time. The first Category will be charged as per the original submission fee. Additional categories (2 or more) will be charged as such.
Rather than increasing the fee for each entry, fees are only charged in order to cover administrative costs like printing, mailing and data organization. For this reason, each participant is charged a flat $30 administration fee. When all participants pay the same low fee, those submitting more than one entry will actually pay less than if fees were on a sliding scale.
PROJECT DATE
Work submitted must have been created within the last 5 years.
