This 2017, on its 8th year, the adobo Design Awards Asia (aDAA) returns with the theme, “Inspiring Humanity Through Design” this time focusing on the emotional connection that a design can generate.

He is joined by Jowee Alviar of Team Manila, Dave Ferrer of J. Walter Thompson Philippines, calligrapher Patrick Cabral (who was also part in last year’s jury), Dan Matutina of Plus63 Design, Robert Alejandro of RAD Design Philippines, Quark Henares of Globe Studios, and Ivan Despi of The Acid House, to name a few.
