Green Good Design

The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies have joined forces on both continents to present an innovative and challenging new public program: GREEN GOOD DESIGN.

GOOD DESIGN™ was founded in Chicago in 1950 by Eero Saarinen, Charles and Ray Eames, and Edgar Kaufmann, Jr. to promote and foster a greater public understanding and acceptance for Modern Design.

In 2008, nearly seven decades later, this new edition of GOOD DESIGN brings a parallel

public appreciation and awareness for an equally revolutionary design approach—a new

design thinking led by a current generation of visionary architects, designers, urban planners, corporations, governments, individuals, and private and public institutions for a design and a public environment based upon the ideals of energy conservation; the reduction of toxic waste and greenhouse gases; the diminishing dependence on fossil fuels; and a sensitivity for waste, pollution, and the depletion of the world’s energy resources. This new design approach centers on the idea of repairing our worldwide environments with sustainability and for ecological restoration.

Now in turn and in 2008, GREEN GOOD DESIGN's goal is to bestow international recognition to those outstanding individuals, companies, organisations, governments, and institutions—together with their products, services, programs, ideas, and concepts—that have forwarded exceptional thinking and inspired greater progress toward a more healthier and more sustainable universe.

Nominations/Submissions
Both organising insitutions in Europe and America are inviting open submissions to

honour design innovation and pioneering achievements in this 2008 Awards Program.

Architects, designers, urban planners, governments, manufacturers, corporations,

institutions, organizations, individuals, as well as individual products, buildings, concepts, projects, programmes, and technology are eligible for submission.

A professional jury in the field of sustainability will review submissions and examine their substance and pursuit of excellence and determine the 2008 GREEN GOOD DESIGN Awards accordingly.

Awards are announced in Spring 2008 to the international press and public.

Awarded individuals, corporations, institutions, products, projects, and programmes form a traveling exhibition in Europe and in the U.S. in 2008 and are published by The Chicago

Athenaeum and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.

We invite your application for this 2008 Awards Program.

Nominations are also made by The European Centre's International Advisory Committee
