“Allowed Us to Build Brand Awareness” and “Ultimately, Increase Sales” 

With a roster of impressive winners and honorees across the globe, the Best of Year Awards offer “amplified exposure,” shares Thomas Jonsson, co-founder of Scandinavian Spaces, which has earned several wins over the years. Such exposure has “allowed us and our partner brand, Blå Station, to continue promoting Big Talk as an award-winning product,” he adds, referring to the 2021 Best of Year winner for Contract Lounge Seating.

“Winning the Best of Year Award has allowed us to build credibility, increase brand awareness, and, ultimately, increase sales,” he continues, stressing the power behind the accolade.

The awards also foster community, and strengthen connections throughout the industry. “We love attending the [Best of Year Awards] event in NYC every year to support designers, manufacturers, students, and industry leaders—building a community where we can recognize each other’s accomplishments and hard work over the past year,” says Jonsson. “This gathering and coming together to celebrate our industry is powerful and inspiring.”
