Since its launch, the 2025 Asian Vanguard Art and Design Award has attracted wide attention and active participation from designers, educators, university students, and art enthusiasts both at home and abroad. A total of 4,390 entries were submitted, of which 4,060 valid works were accepted, covering diverse fields and creative forms (including works recommended by overseas partner associations). These submissions vividly demonstrate the vitality of art and design as well as their cross-disciplinary integration. After a rigorous preliminary review, 1,352 works stood out and successfully advanced to the secondary evaluation stage.

During the secondary and final evaluations, the competition strictly adhered to the principles of fairness, impartiality, and transparency. In response to cases where some jurors also participated as entrants, the Organizing Committee implemented effective measures such as anonymous reviewing and recusal to ensure the independence of the evaluation process and the integrity of the results. Based on the comprehensive assessment of the Final Review Expert Committee, a total of 482 works have been awarded, including 128 awards at the Bronze level and above. The final list of award winners has now been officially determined and is hereby announced.

The certificates will be produced and mailed in due course. We kindly ask all instructors for their patience.

The Organizing Committee would like to emphasize the following:

• During the evaluation process, the jury focused solely on the design style, artistic expression, and overall quality of the entries. Every effort was made to avoid the inclusion of inappropriate, sensitive, or controversial elements.

• All participants are required to comply with the laws and regulations of the People’s Republic of China and their respective countries or regions, while respecting different ethnicities, genders, and religious beliefs. Any discriminatory, offensive, or politically sensitive content is strictly prohibited.

• If entries involve maps, geographic names, or national/regional symbols, they must follow international standards and comply with the organizer’s requirements. Inappropriate use that causes disputes may lead to disqualification and a zero score, with all consequences borne by the participant.

• All entries must be original works and free from plagiarism or infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. Any violations will result in the cancellation of participation or awards, with full responsibility borne by the participant.

• The authorship and intellectual property rights of all works remain with the creators. The Organizing Committee reserves the right to use entries for promotion, publication, exhibition, and academic dissemination.
