Self-help is the best help, the sooner you imbibe this rule in your life, the faster you will find success. I’m not trying to be preachy here, but this is a fact that most biggies in the industry live by.

The list that you see here reflects how the designers have incorporated a simplistic every-day value to their complex technological design. In my mind I see the common thread of mundane objects being inspirational and incidental. Can you see the beautiful lampshade in the Gramo or the pots in the Sound Eggs? I do, I’m just waiting for you to catch up with me!

We received entries from all over the world. Poverty is a difficult problem to diagnose let alone solve but nonetheless as designers we can address different aspects of poverty and hope by dealing with each point in the problem, we can begin to collapse the systemic process and give back the dignity every person deserves. We judged based on concept, cost to implement, and deployment. Thank you to all the entrants for your hard work. Hit the jump to see the winners.
The winners of the Opus Design Award were announced recently and the entries might help solve a lot of our little nagging problems with eyewear. The gold prize went to Nick Jinkinson who designed around transition lenses that more completely transitioned in the sun. Runners up include foldout frames, built in lens cleaner, and what can only appear to be the Opti-Grab from the 1979 comedy The Jerk. Let’s hope none of them cause wearers to become permanently and irreversibly cross-eyed.
Explore the best of YD. Our Archives are full of wonderful concepts from all over the world. Go ahead, don't be shy!
Please give yourselves a pat on the back. I know the deadline was tight but you guys managed to pull thru and put together some amazing ideas full of imagination, ingenuity, and hope. Poverty is a cyclical system that cannot be solved by one idea and you all did an amazing job addressing every aspect. I also want to thank our sponsors, Herman Miller, Steelcase, Haworth, and Pure Digital. Hit the jump for the shortlist!
