After all the hubub surrounding last year’s National Design Awards, it’ll be interesting to see if there’s a repeat scandal. We’re guessing not, because, let’s face it, you boycott something too many times in a row and it starts getting a little tired, doesn’t it? Anyway, here’s the just released list (pdf) of the big winners:

Lifetime Achievement: Antoine Predock

Corporate Acheivement: Adobe

The Design Mind Award: Denise Scott Brown & Robert Venturi

Communications Design: Chip Kidd

Fashion Design: Rick Owens

(Thank goodness Jonathan Ive is finally being honored. We were starting to think that that guy was never going to get any attention.)
