BRAZIL – Once the technical and functional evaluation of the 562 projects enrolled in the Salão Design 2022 Award is finished, the organization is already computing the jury’s considerations to define the finalists in each of the five segments of this edition.

They will be announced on October 11 this year, without revealing the authorship of the pieces.

The selected products must be delivered to the headquarters of Sindmóveis Bento Gonçalves and will be evaluated in person by a group of aesthetic-creative jurors. The announcement of the winners is scheduled for February 1, 2022, with the first show to the public at the Movelsul Brasil Fair which will take place from March 14 to 17, at the Events Park of Bento Gonçalves.

The director of the Design Salon 2022 Award, José Ferro, explains that this first stage evaluates the products for their technical and manufacturing feasibility, as well as ergonomic requirements. “The finalists will be announced on October 11, after thorough analysis of each project. In January 2022, the aesthetic-creative jurors will be in Bento Gonçalves to evaluate the prototypes in person and choose the winners,” he adds.
