It consists of two awards: KUKAN DESIGN AWARD, which was established by combining the awards of the DSA (Japan Design Space Association) and the JCD (Japan Commercial Environmental Design Association), and the JAPAN SIGN DESIGN AWARD by the SDA (Japan Sign Design Association).
The 264 domestic and international works that were rigorously selected for the two competitions are introduced with rich illustrations and texts, providing a visual content that enables readers to decipher the spatial design that has developed over the past year.
