澳门设计师协会成立于1986年5月18日,是一个由平面设计师、产品设计师、室内设计师、网页设计师、商业摄影师、插画师等专业人士组成的综合专业及非牟利文化艺术团体。三十多年来为澳门“团结设计精英、维护业界利益、提升专业水平、促进对外交流”孜孜不倦地努力。早于1994年,现代设计概念尚未被澳门市场所认识,协会在没有任何官方机构资助的情况下,成功举办本澳首次大型的综合性设计比赛“第一届澳门设计双年展”。


“澳门设计双年展”迄今已成功举办了十二届,对业内及社会起着积极的影响,澳门的设计水平显著进步,新的创作意念及思维不断地涌现,展示了澳门设计师们的创作才华。双年展更于2019年双年展正式改名为“澳门设计大奖”,以重新定位期望进一步扩大比赛与展览的影响力及提升澳门整体的设计水平。

The Macau Designers Association (MDA) was founded on 18 May 1986.It is a professional and non-profit art and cultural association comprising graphic, product, interior and web designers, as well as commercial photographers, illustrators and other creative professionals. Over the past thirty years, MDA has been sparing no effort to fulfil the mission: ‘Unite Macao designers, protect their interest, enhance professionalism and facilitate external exchange’.In 1994, when the modern concepts of design professions were not widely understood in Macao, MDA successfully held the 1st Macau Design Biennial – the first large integrated design competition in the city, without any support from official institutions.


Over the past 11 events, the Macau Design Biennial has exerted a positive influence on the local design sector as well as society as a whole. It has brought notable improvement to local designs and inspired new creative ideas and mind-sets while showcasing the talent of local designers. In 2019, the Macau Design Biennial has been repositioned and officially renamed as the Macau Design Award, seeking to further expand the influence of its competition and exhibition as well as to raise the overall level of Macao’s design profession.
