This year’s jury features some of APAC’s biggest and brightest names, such as Yah-Leng Yu (Creative Director & Principal, Foreign Policy Design Group), Kainaz Karmakar (Chief Creative Officer, Ogilvy), Ayano Takase (Graphic Designer, TKSING) and Shiho Fukuhara (Artist, Technology Integration Lead, Google) – each of whom represent the breadth of creative potential that D&AD seeks to celebrate through its awards. They will be in charge of reviewing and recognising exceptional work created within the past year in the belief that platforming creative thinking is always worthwhile.
Following the success of past virtual editions, D&AD will continue its digital-first approach to the 2022 awards to guarantee the safety of its members, jury, and participants. D&AD’s distinguished jurors will once again assemble virtually to review the work, holding each piece to the same high standards that the awards are renowned for. The only exceptions are the Book Design, Graphic Design, Magazine & Newspaper Design, Packaging Design and Product Design categories, where in-person judging is essential.
Says Donal Keenan, awards director at D&AD: “Now in its 60th year, the D&AD Awards have grown to incorporate more than 40 categories judged by a cohort of nearly 400 of the world’s leading creative minds. Each year, our Judges ensure that the awards maintain the highest possible standard for judging, making it one of the ultimate creative accolades. Their expertise and insight will be invaluable when determining this year’s winners and which innovative, creative work will stand the test of time and inspire a global community of creative thinkers.”
The full list of confirmed Jury Presidents and Judges from APAC can be viewed below. Entries for the awards will be closing on Wednesday 16th March 2022. For further information about the categories and how to enter visit the D&AD website here.

Sorry, but apart from Tara, I don’t know anyone in that jury. Is it just me, or, international award juries have completely lost the plot in the last few years?
Well, I know at least 4 of them, and they are amazingly talented. And I’m sure the rest of them are amazingly talented, hence why they were selected to be part of a prestigious jury. I imagine the only time you’ll be involved with a jury is when you get called up, or when you face one.
Advertising has changed so to must the juries that judge it.
