2026 In-House Design Award Winners

The role of design as a tool for experiencing and understanding our world has become indisputable. Armed with the creativity and expertise to deliver on business objectives, in-house design teams are uniquely positioned to craft compelling communications that inform and inspire. In this exhibit, we present some of the most effective examples of creative solutions from in-house design teams across Canada. 

In our fifth year presenting this program, the RGD received 252 entries from across North America. Projects represent a range of industry sectors, from healthcare to post-secondary education, and retail to municipal government. Each entry was reviewed by three of our 12 judges, with each judge providing a score for their top 20–30 projects and selecting one project as their Judge’s Pick, which are featured as Awards of Excellence. Awards of Merit represent entries that received the highest scores across the judges who reviewed them.
