Young designers prove their mettle


TWO university students were crowned gold award winners at the Asia Young Designer Awards (AYDA) 2020 for their “human-centred designs”. Dayana Aripin from Universiti Sains Malaysia and Lim Yee Fah from Taylor’s University took first place in the architecture and interior design categories, respectively, in the recent competition organised by Nippon Paint Malaysia in collaboration with IJM Land Berhad.

Having won the award and a cash prize of RM5,000 each, they will now advance to the regional level of the competition at the upcoming Asia Young Designer Awards Summit in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, where they stand a chance to win a spot in the six-week, all-expenses paid Design Discovery programme at the Harvard Graduate School of Design in the United States.
