IDI Awards 2020 Winners
The 21st IDI Awards took place online on Wednesday, 4th November, 2020, showcasing the contribution of over 460 designers & collaborators across Ireland, and Irish designers based abroad.
The sense of celebration was palpable, a much needed opportunity to take ourselves out of the day to day concerns and focus on shared achievements. The work showcased was truly inspirational, from clever brands and beautifully crafted illustrations, through to products and services that genuinely changed and saved lives, particularly against a backdrop of the global pandemic.
More of this inspirational work and creators can be seen below.
