【2022 Taiwan International Student Design Competition Online Meeting】- October 16th Outcome Announcement of Final Selection & International Design Association Discussion Meeting

The 2022 Taiwan International Student Design Competition is organized by the Ministry of Education, and sponsored by iSee Taiwan Foundation, the Sayling Wen Cultural & Educational Foundation and the TPCA Environment Foundation and executed by the Department of Visual Communication Design of Asia University. An Outcome Announcement of Final Selection & International Design Association Discussion Meeting for the 3 categories of the competition was held on the 16^th of October from 2:00 pm to 9:30 pm at Upgrade Business Center in Taipei.

This year, six conveners from the three categories, including Peggy Wung,Co-Founder of Jin Tang Culture Co., Ltd since 2020 Sean Lee, Managing Director of the iF Design Asia Ltd., Wu Jieh Min, Chairman of the Taiwan Poster Design Association, Stony Cherng, former Chairman of the Taiwan Graphic Design Association, Chun Chieh Lien, Founder of dot2dotmovie director, and Chiao Chun Su, Chairman of the Chinese Industrial Designers Association have joined the judging panel. Together with 112 judges from 31 countries in preliminary selection as well as 45 judges from 26 countries in the final selection, they completed an impossible task of choosing 73 award winning works out of the 16,749 entries, which come from 66 regions/countries and 867 departments and universities.

Three international conferences were held in the meeting, which was joined by the conveners and 31 final selection judges from different continents and countries despite the difference in time zone. Judges from across the globe not only praised the rigorous and transparent judging process but also felt reminiscent of the friendly and kind experiences they had in Taiwan.

We appreciate the 22 international design associations, who show tremendous support for the TISDC this year, including Art Directors Club of New York, Associazione per il Disegno Industriale in Italy, The Bureau of European Design Associations in Europe, Centro Brazil Design, Creative Economy Agency in Thailand, Confederation of Indian Industry, Cumulus, Design Business Chamber Singapore, Hong Kong Federation of Design and Creative Industries, Good Design Australia, German Design Council, ICoD, International Poster Biennial Mexico, Japan Institute of Design Promotion, Korea Ensemble of Contemporary Design, Lahti International Poster Triennial in Finland, Macau Designers Association, Pan-Afrikan Design Institute, Brno Biennale Association in Czech, Taiwan Design Alliance, The Design Alliance Asia in Malaysia, and World Design Organization. With the help of the 22 international design associations, a design platform is built, and the world is able to see the design power of Taiwan. We’d like to thank everyone who works and improves with us every year with the aim of showing the design of Taiwan to the world.
