We believe that something that can truly enrich someone's life, or has this possibility is "good design".

Good Design Award's target:

The Good Design Award is not simply a competition-contest that compares the merits of designs. Rather, it is an activity that evaluates and recognizes the design from the point of view of whether the design of the target "can make life and society more affluent" that is, the effect of design - the point of view of utility.

"Good design" the ideas and methodologies contained in the design can provide both living and working people with clues to our future activities. This clue is both a source of new good design and a driving force for the creation of a new society. The Design Excellence Award aims to construct the framework of a platform that can give rise to "a creative chain reaction for a new society". So, what is the most important part of this "creative chain reaction".

Good Design Award hopes to express these "advantages" and "possibilities" in a more understandable language, so that more people "notice(discover)" and make society more colorful through creative chain reaction.
