The NY Design & Creative Awards honors outstanding digital design and creative excellence and innovation globally. This category recognizes excellence in branding, marketing visuals, graphic communication, motion graphics, print-to-digital materials, and emerging creative formats including generative AI and NFT/Web3 applications.
Featured within the NY Digital Awards program, we welcome submissions from designers, creative teams, agencies, studios, students, and organizations producing impactful work across various media, such as logos, infographics, brochures, app redesigns, email campaigns, and exhibition visuals. Whether for digital platforms or hybrid executions, this category celebrates design that communicates with clarity, originality, and purpose.
Submit your entry today and stand among the creatives shaping how design influences experience and interaction in the digital world.
The NY Digital Awards prides itself on maintaining affordable entry fees for all participants.
The overall fee structure is designed with simplicity and fairness in mind. Instead of escalating costs per entry, we charge a $30 annual administrative fee for only the first entry of each competition year. This approach covers expenses such as printing, mailing and data organization. By implementing a consistent fee, entrants submitting multiple entries will benefit from a cost-effective structure, making it more economical than a variable fee system.
