Why are we still celebrating mediocre design? The ADG Laus 2025 awards showcase sheer talent with over 1,450 entries, yet here we are, lauding the same tired tropes while our creative landscape stagnates. This year's exhibition at DHub Barcelona, featuring projects from Mario Eskenazi and El Celler de Can Roca, feels more like a recycling of past glories than a bold leap forward. As someone immersed in the design community, it’s disheartening to see recognition handed out like candy, while genuine innovation takes a backseat. Are we truly honoring exceptional work, or just patting ourselves on the back for being 'in the know'? Let's demand better from our awards and our industry. If we don’t challenge the status quo, we’re doomed to repeat it. https://graffica.info/los-premios-adg-laus-2025-se-exhiben-en-el-dhub-barcelona/ #DesignCritique #ADGLaus2025 #Innovation #GraphicDesign #StatusQuo
