Check each entry’s category, year and studio credit. Work for the same brand may cover different products or markets. D1S1 links selected professional winners to studio profiles, with the award level and original source beside each entry.
Looking beyond the photograph
Look at how the design works across product variants, how it presents information and how the pack is made. These details help you assess the whole packaging system. An award alone does not verify environmental claims or production performance.
Choosing a packaging studio
Compare the studio’s other work in your sector. Food, beauty and drinks each bring different constraints. Check whether the team handled strategy, graphics, structural packaging or one part of a collaboration. For broader identity work, explore its Brand Impact or D&AD entries.
