"This year Sydney has truly embraced the awards with the result being a remarkable collection of courageous projects “said Mark Bergin of design100 and the Sydney Design Awards. “To stay relevant in a global market we need to accelerate transformation, the economic race is being dictated by other markets that are growing much faster than ours. Design is the most effective and efficient means to accelerate transformation, our goal is to recognise those who have had the courage to commission new design projects. The more we recognise those who have taken proactive steps to accelerate our market, the faster we'll see others taking up the same challenge.”
