\"2013<\/a><\/p>\n

We’re thrilled to announce: TED is one of the 2013 winners of the National Design Awards, given by the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt. The National Design Awards celebrate design “as a vital humanistic tool in shaping the world” — which is how we feel about it too. Great design, like great writing and great speaking, is a vital tool for helping ideas spread.<\/p>\n

TED wins for Corporate & Institutional Achievement<\/a> — a category that honors the way great design weaves into everything TED does, from stage sets to mobile<\/a> apps<\/a>, from program guides to our world-spanning open initiatives like TEDx<\/a> and the Open Translation Project<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And we’re in wonderful company. Other winners<\/a> include Paula Scher<\/a> (watch her TED Talk<\/a>), fashion designer Behnaz Sarafpour, and the urbanist and critic Michael Sorkin. Browse the full list \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n

Among the designers, photographers and volunteers who contributed to our in-house team’s work — and are a key part of this award:<\/p>\n

Photographers:<\/strong> James Duncan Davidson<\/a>, Ryan Lash<\/a>, Robert Leslie<\/a>, Michael Brands<\/a>, Marla Aufmuth<\/a> and kris kr\u00fcg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mobile designers:<\/strong> Brian Wilson<\/a> and Rusty Mitchell<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Video designers:<\/strong> Psyop<\/a>, Oliver Jeffers<\/a> and Mac Premo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Print, online and event designers:<\/strong> WORKSHOP<\/a>, Hybrid Design<\/a>, Albertson Design<\/a>, Paper Plane Studio<\/a>, Laura Morris<\/a>, Robert Horansky<\/a>, Plunkett + Kuhr<\/a>, Paul Soulellis<\/a>, Always With Honor<\/a>, Phi-Hong Ha<\/a> — and of course the founder of TED, Richard Saul Wurman<\/a> …<\/p>\n
