The Skift Design Awards is the travel industry’s recognition of the spaces, services, and experiences transforming the traveler journey.

Beyond the visual discipline of design, the Skift Design Awards celebrates the best work across architecture, interior design, experiential, digital, and UX to reflect the interconnectivity between offline and online experiences.

This year’s competition features 15 categories, open to brands from all travel sectors, including best guest experience, wellness, public space, sustainability, event design, and more. Winners and finalists will be featured on Skift and celebrated at Skift Global Forum 2019.

Entries will be evaluated by a panel of internationally renowned design leaders (which will be announced later this month) and will be judged on their originality, functionality, and impact on the overall traveler experience.

Enter by May 17 to get the early bird rate.
