Thus, form 2020 presents the first form Progress Award also in the conviction that a promising opportunity is to listen to young people.

form Progress Award
The form Progress Award was presented in 2020 by the design magazine form and honours a project that is not only innovative but progressive. If designers are critically involved in the development process of projects at an early stage, they can play a significant and responsible role in shaping a better future. Design is always an opportunity for change, so the project should convey an independent design attitude that is close to the current technological, ethical, social and political discourse.
