Design Museum's Designer of the Year
- Design Museum's Designer of the Year
The £25,000 prize in the Design Museum's Designer of the Year award is awarded annually to the designer – or design team – living and working in the UK, or to any designer who was born in the UK but is now based in another country, that has made the biggest contribution to design in the past year.
How the shortlist is chosen
The 2006 shortlist – Tom Dixon, The Guardian, Jamie Hewlett and Cameron Sinclair – was chosen by a jury consisting of: last year's Designer of the Year and public sector design reformer Hilary Cottam; Burberry's creative director Christopher Bailey; Emily Campbell, head of design and architecture at the British Council; and television presenter Kevin McCloud. The jury is chaired by Christopher Frayling, rector of the Royal College of Art and chairman of Arts Council England.
Designers working in every area of design – from cars and websites, to graphics and furniture, but not fashion or architecture – were eligible for nomination. The shortlisted designers were chosen on the basis of their work in 2005. There was an exhibition of the shortlist's work at the Design Museum from 4 March to 18 June 2006.
Choosing the winner
The winner of the £25,000 prize is chosen by the four jurors and the public, who can vote for their favourite nominee on the Design Museum website and after visiting the Designer of the Year exhibition at the Design Museum.
The outcome of the public vote counts towards the choice of the winner together with the votes of each of the four jurors. This year's winner was announced at a prizegiving event at the Design Museum on 22 May 2006.
