IAA is driven by the mission to honour, promote and encourage creativity. Award’s motto reflects its core values: “Conquer change. You are indomitable. You conquer change”.
To uphold IAA’s mission, MUSE Design Awards strives to keep the awards financially accessible and its judging process impartial. To further accommodate professionals of varying disciplines, numerous categories are made available to entrants.
