Ranking IF de escolas de design

o IF International Forum Design Hannover publica uma ordenação ( http://www.ifdesign.de/ranking_tabellen_e) referente aos resultados obtidos nos seus diferentes prémios que mostra bem como o centro de gravidade do Design se mudou definitivamente para o Oriente. Descontando as duas escolas "da casa" em 4º e 5º lugares a melhor europeia - Royal College of Art de Londres aparece em 12º lugar! Até lá é só Taiwan, Coreia e China.

No quadro dos designers (autores dos projectos) os gabinetes internos das grandes firmas arrebatam os lugares cimeiros, encabeçados pela Coreana Samsung, se bem que aqui a preponderância do Oriente seja menor.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The iF ranking is based on all awards from the last three years in these iF award competitions:

iF product design award
iF communication design award
iF design award china 2009, 2010
iF material design award
iF packaging design award
iF concept design award [as part of the iF ranking university]

You will find the requirements, criteria and dates for each award in the relevant iF design award sections.

The iF ranking is updated after each iF design awards night. For each iF award you will get 20 points. For each iF gold award you will get 100 points. The iF ranking is divided into three categories:

• iF ranking creative
  (In-house designer, external design office, communication design agencies, architects, interior designers)

• iF ranking company
  (manufacturers, contracting organization)

• iF ranking university
  (student results from the iF concept design award)

If a competition entry is registered jointly by more than one participant, we will attribute the points to the first name and address in the registration form.

Companies with individual departments within the same country or network agencies with individual branches within the same country will be treated as one entity under one logo. The iF ranking is updated after each awards ceremony. We reserve the right to change the iF ranking as needed.
