LABASAD at the ADG Laus Awards 2026: 25 nominated projects!

Seeing the ideas born from our students turn into fully fledged, concrete projects is already a source of pride, but when they also reach beyond the classroom, the satisfaction is doubled.

It’s official: we have the list of nominees for the ADG Laus Student Awards 2026.

This year, we decided to bet big and submitted a total of 77 student projects. We knew the standard within our community was incredibly high, but the jury’s verdict has exceeded all expectations. No fewer than 25 LABASAD projects have been nominated.

Getting such a demanding jury, made up of highly prestigious national and international professionals, to choose your proposals from hundreds of entries across the country is no mean feat. Only 30% of the submitted projects manage to pass the rigorous first round of voting to become ‘In Book’. Being included is already a massive recognition of the overall quality and consistency of our designers.

What happens now?

Our 25 nominees are already guaranteed a place in the ADG Laus Book 2026, the definitive editorial benchmark for the creative sector in Spain. Furthermore, their projects will feature in the online gallery on the ADG-FAD website, a massive showcase to gain visibility for their work among studios and agencies worldwide.

But it doesn’t stop there. The big mystery will be revealed very soon. From all the shortlisted entries, the jury awards the coveted Bronze, Silver, and the highly anticipated Gold Laus. Will there be a Young Talent in our community this year? That accolade is reserved for the extraordinary, for what truly stands out from the crowd.

We will experience the answer live on 11 June 2026 at the Nit ADG Laus, the great design celebration where students, studios, and agencies from all over the country will come together. It will be the moment to cross our fingers, celebrate talent, and see how many of our own get to step up onto the stage to collect their trophy.

Whatever happens that night, the success is already yours. Securing 25 nominations in Spain’s most prestigious competition proves that at LABASAD, we don’t just study design; we create design with identity, character, and a future.

Best of luck to all the nominees! See you on 11 June.🏆
