NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, October 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The 2026 MUSE Creative Awards and MUSE Design Awards have announced their Season 2 winners, recognizing work distinguished by the clarity of its ideas, the strength of its execution, and its relevance within today’s creative and design industries.

Selected from more than 14,000 entries worldwide, the winners represent achievements across advertising, branding, digital experiences, architecture, interior design, product development, packaging, and other professional disciplines.

Presented by the International Awards Associate (IAA), the MUSE Awards provide an international platform where creative and design achievements are evaluated on merit. Across both programs, recognition is grounded in the quality of the work itself and the professional standards demonstrated through its development and execution.

A Global Field of Creative and Design Achievement
Season 2 drew submissions from independent professionals, agencies, studios, brands, and organizations across international markets, reflecting the breadth of expertise represented within both competitions.

Participants included internationally recognized organizations and creative practices such as NBCUniversal, Amazon News, Coach, rhode, Sony Group Corporation, George P.

The breadth of participation underscores MUSE’s international reach across creative and design practice.

Recognition Grounded in Professional Evaluation
An international jury of 222 professionals from 39 countries reviewed the Season 2 submissions, bringing expertise across creative communication, architecture, interiors, product design, digital experience, branding, and related disciplines.

Through MUSE’s blind judging process, each entry was assessed on the strength of its idea, execution, and overall achievement, without regard to company size, reputation, or market visibility. This ensures every distinction reflects professional judgment and the merit of the work presented.

Among the distinguished jurors were:
• Fabio Barros, Global Creative Director at Meta;
• Amy Leo, Creative Director at IKEA;
• Atakan Salcioglu, Creative Design Manager at HUAWEI;
• Chase Abraham, Sr. Director of Creative Excellence at The Coca-Cola Company;
• John Muhlenkamp, Director of Industrial Design at GoPro, Inc.;
• Benjamin Kuhn, Sr. Program Manager UX & Innovation at Hyundai America Technical Center;
• Johana Mendoza Rodriguez, Architectural Designer at Olson Kundig;
• Zhijun He, Senior Designer at Samsung.

“Work earns lasting recognition when its value extends beyond the moment it is introduced,” said Thomas Brandt, spokesperson of the International Awards Associate. “The Season 2 winners show how clear ideas and considered execution can influence industries and the people they serve. That is the standard MUSE was established to honor.”
