The ADI Compasso d’Oro Award is universally regarded as the supreme accolade for originality, excellence, achievement and research in industrial design. Created in 1954 by the la Rinascente department store in Milan to encourage product aesthetics, the award’s logo - a reference to the compass invented by Adalbert Göringer to measure the golden section – was designed by Albe Steiner, while the trophy is the work of Alberto Rosselli and Marco Zanuso.
The award subsequently passed from Ia Rinascente to ADI, which organises the award once every three years. Every year, the Permanent Design Observatory, a team of more than 150 design experts, selects the finest of Italian design for the annual ADI Design Index, the basis on which an International jury then confers the Compasso d’Oro Awards once every three years. Since 1954, more than 30,000 items have been examined, 313 Compasso d’Oro Awards and 103 Compasso d’Oro Carreer Awards presented, and 1,819 Honorable Mentions and 71 Targhe Giovani attributed.

In this exhibition are presented the prizes and mentions obtained by the School of Design and by the Department of Design of the Politecnico di Milano over the last few years:
