The Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum has announced the winners of the 2016 National Design Awards, including a lifetime achievement award to Moshe Safdie and the Architecture Design award to Marlon Blackwell Architects.
The 17th annual awards are given in eleven categories: Lifetime Achievement, Director's Award, Design Mind, Corporate & Institutional Achievement, Architecture Design, Communication Design, Fashion Design, Interaction Design, Interior Design, Landscape Architecture, and Product Design.
Caroline Baumann, Cooper Hewitt director, said in the announcement: "This year's class of winners reflect design's remarkable empathy for contemporary social concerns: from promoting workplace productivity to preserving vernacular traditions to encouraging civic engagement. These designers and design firms cross disciplinary boundaries, explore innovative materials and develop new models of problem-solving in pursuit of these goals."
Winners will receive their awards at a gala in Washington, DC, in October.
