‘For more than a century, the ADC Cube has been awarded for the world’s best work based on excellence in craft, design and innovation,’ said Kevin Swanepoel, CEO, The One Club for Creativity. ‘This strong tradition continues today in the hands of this year’s global jury members, a diverse, gender balanced group who are recognised creative leaders in their fields.’
Entries can be submitted now, with fees increasing after each deadline period. Regular deadline is January 31, 2022, with extended deadline of February 18, 2022 and final deadline March 4, 2022. No physical entries will be accepted this year due to the ongoing pandemic. All entry media must be uploaded into the online entry system.
Judging will be conducted online, starting in March 2022, with finalists announced in May. ADC 101st Annual Awards Gold, Silver and Bronze Cube winners will be announced during Creative Week in May 2022.
Branding for the ADC 101st Annual Awards was developed by DDB Paris. The One Club awards shows each have their distinct focus: ADC Annual Awards juries look to champion excellence in craft, design and innovation, while The One Show judges focus on creativity of ideas and quality of execution.
The One Club is a non-profit organisation that puts revenue generated from awards entries back into the industry in the form of programmes under its four pillars: Educations, Inclusion and Diversity, Gender Equality and Professional Development.
