The DNP wants to motivate all important actors to change, network them across borders and encourage partnerships. The DNP is intended to draw attention to creative ideas against the "Keep it up!" and show how transformation can succeed more quickly. contest Design plays an increasingly important role, reflecting all the major ecological and social challenges of our time. Against this background, the DNP 2021 is awarding the prize for sustainable design for the second time: The DNP Design awards creative, technical and social solutions that are particularly effective in terms of the transformation to sustainable products, production and consumption systems or lifestyles. The appreciation of the best is intended to help ensure that design in general is even more strongly geared towards sustainability. With the German Sustainability Award for Design, the concept of design is not limited to the design of physical products. Design is the development of every conceivable product, system or service. In the best case, the central question at the beginning of the development process is how a product, service or system can achieve the greatest possible positive effect for sustainability. The design and implementation of the design solution are based on this accordingly. In addition to the "regular" German Sustainability Design Award for current solutions (without an addition), the award with the addition "Visions" is also awarded for solutions that are not yet on the market.
