NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, November 11, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The International Awards Associate (IAA) officially opens submissions for the 2026 NY Product Design Awards and NY Architectural Design Awards, honoring global excellence in both product innovation and the built environment.

Together, these two platforms represent the evolving landscape of design, where ideas become products that enhance modern living, and architecture shapes spaces that define how people connect with the world. The NY Product and Architectural Design Awards celebrate designers who bridge imagination and intention, crafting works that endure in purpose, relevance, and form.

2026 NY Product Design Awards Theme: Innovate for Tomorrow
“Innovate for Tomorrow” celebrates the designers and engineers transforming how we live, work, and move through the world. From consumer goods and wearables to industrial and sustainable products, the theme recognizes innovations that merge creativity with function — designs that anticipate tomorrow’s needs while elevating today’s experience.

2026 NY Architectural Design Awards Theme: Build for Tomorrow
Architecture, at its best, is an act of foresight. “Build for Tomorrow” honors those who design beyond immediate needs — envisioning structures, interiors, and landscapes that serve both people and the planet. The theme underscores architecture’s role in shaping resilient communities, harmonizing beauty and sustainability across every scale of design.

“Design defines the rhythm of our lives. From the tools we hold to the spaces we inhabit,” said Thomas Brandt, spokesperson of the International Awards Associate (IAA). “Through the NY Product and Architectural Design Awards, we celebrate those whose ideas transform possibility into progress, crafting the foundations of how the next generation will live and create.”
