Innovation Competition - Design Business Directory

Innovation Competition

The designer, who channeled his creative vision into the event space, created a multilayered visual language that extends from digital to print. While a dynamic atmosphere was created with stage videos and motion graphics, the Nft exhibition highlighted the projects digitally. All design elements, including social media images, web banners and printed materials, contributed to presenting the competition with a professional and consistent visual identity. The technological and aesthetic concept created throughout the event made every moment effective.

Eda Elmacı completed her university life in the field of "Nişantaşı University - Graphic Design" and took her first steps in design by developing herself externally in this process. After graduating from university, she started to work at Başakşehir Living Lab Innovation and Technology Center, leading her design life in many areas. She aimed to gain new experiences in the field of digital design, work with entrepreneurs and startups, bring new projects and ideas to life, and bring a character to each brand while creating her brands. Reaching people with the designs he has realized and witnessing and experiencing this whole process with them is the biggest source of motivation for him. Eda, who sees every project she realizes as an important diamond for her development, has experienced many business items in a short period of 6 years in the field of design. Among all these business items, it is proud of making the field designs of big awards and exhibition ceremonies such as events, organizations successful by itself and aims to make its diamonds even brighter. He plans to take the first steps with his own brand next year with the diamonds he collected in the colorful roadmap he drew to establish his own company!

About DBD

Design Business Directory was founded on the principle that true design excellence cannot be measured by popularity alone. Instead, we believe that the most meaningful indicator of skill, creativity, and professionalism is official recognition by respected international juries who follow transparent, pre-established voting criteria. When a designer, architect, or creative agency enters a rigorous peer review process, one that evaluates submissions against clear quality benchmarks, ethical standards, and innovation requirements, it ensures that any accolades they receive are both credible and deserved and are meritocratic.

Peer-reviewed awards, such as the prestigious A’ Design Award, exist to showcase the very best in design and innovation. The A’ Design Award is judged by a balanced panel of experienced academics, influential press members, and established professionals, all of whom apply a thoroughly documented scoring system. Through this structured method of evaluation, only truly exceptional projects are recognized. This is precisely the level of excellence that Design Business Directory aims to highlight: forward-thinking professionals who have demonstrated mastery in their field according to objective, globally respected criteria.

Because we are committed to presenting only the cream of the crop in design, Design Business Directory accepts listings exclusively from those who have proven themselves in such distinguished competitions. By requiring at least one peer-reviewed award—namely, the A’ Design Award—as a prerequisite for inclusion, we maintain the authenticity and overall quality of the directory. Consequently, to be listed on Design Business Directory, you must have already won the A’ Design Award. This ensures every individual and studio showcased here operates at the highest tier of professional accomplishment, innovation, and credibility.
