Priority Designs wins five 2003 GOOD DESIGN Awards

The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design has awarded Priority Designs with five GOOD DESIGN Awards for 2003. Founded in 1950, the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design organized its first international competition and exhibition five decades ago. This distinguished design competition continues to be a showcase to “honor products and industry leaders, both in design and manufacturing, who have chartered new directions for competitive products in the world marketplace.” Products are juried on criterion including innovation, form, materials, construction, concept, function and utility. The GOOD DESIGN Award publicly acknowledges new innovative product design from the world’s most prestigious industrial design firms and manufacturers in over 20 countries.

Said Paul Kolada, Priority Designs' principal "We are very pleased to once again be recognized by the Chicago Anthenaeum for our work. While we focus our attention more on designing successful products than winning awards, we very much appreciate being recognized by the design community."
