Kokuyo Design Award

The Kokuyo Design Awards opens its 8th year as the competition that seeks to commercialize outstanding product designs presented from designers and users worldwide.
In the 2008 competition we received 1240 submissions (970 from Japan, 270 from overseas) and the competition continues to expand as an international award in product design. Also last year we released three new products from 2007 winning entries, “Kamikire” writing paper, “Beetle Tip” three-tipped highlighter, and “Tidbit” memo pad.
The Kokuyo Design Award seeks to cast creativity and ideas into commercial products available to everyone. So come and participate in the Kokuyo Design Award 2009. We look forward to your creative entries.
