The BNO Piet Zwart Prize is an honourable award for a designer who is of great significance for the design profession. It can involve all disciplines that are important for the stature and development of the design profession. This year, however, the jury will pay extra attention to submissions by product/industrial designers to aim for a balance in the winners of previous years and the various design disciplines.
