The Penguin Random House Design Award was started ten years ago to encourage the next generation of designers to use their amazing talents to help them tell their author’s stories.

The aim of The Penguin Random House Design Award is to nurture and encourage anyone who is interested in following a career in design, which includes but is not exclusive to students on design courses.

To make the process even more similar to the way Penguin’s designers work, once the judges have selected the shortlist, the Art Directors will give the shortlisted entrants feedback and further art direction on their submissions. Shortlisted entrants will then be invited to resubmit their work, taking all the comments on board, before the final round of judging.

Students may enter a maximum of one cover design in each of the three categories:

• Adult Fiction Cover Award
• Adult Non-Fiction Cover Award
• Children’s Cover Award
