The [[National Design Awards]] presented at Month of Design recognise excellence in Slovenian design; though no longer presented, the [[Hiše Awards]] once fulfilled a similar function in the framework of the Big Architecture Festival. |
Since 2018, BIG SEE has sought to draw creative forces throughout the Southeast Europe region into its ambitious festival and trade fair infrastructure to stress the creative vitality of the region as a whole. Though the organisation continues to acknowledge achievements in Slovenian design with the National Design Award, the awards have been expanded considerably and are now presented to outstanding creators from the 19 countries for architecture and a wide range of design fields. A Visionary award was also added to recognise the lifetime achievements of the biggest names in design from the region. | Since 2018, BIG SEE has sought to draw creative forces throughout the Southeast Europe region into its ambitious festival and trade fair infrastructure to stress the creative vitality of the region as a whole.
