ADC has never been interested
in more of the same.
For over a century, we’ve searched for the work that makes us look
twice. The scorching.
The feral. The piercing. The stuff that
breaks rules, shifts culture and drags creativity somewhere new.
We celebrate the pioneers, the misfits and
the minds that refuse to
sit still.
A relentless search for the unusual,
the outstanding, and the
impossible to ignore.
Founded in 1920, the ADC Annual Awards is the world’s longest continuously
running awards program to recognize global excellence and craft and
innovation in all forms of creative work, including design,
advertising,
film and video, product design, gaming, AI, photography,
illustration, creator content, experiential, publication design, and
more.
