The yearly Bio Art & Design (BAD) Award aims to stimulate emerging designers and artists to delve into the world of bio art and design, and produce new multidisciplinary work. This can encompass numerous fields - from sustainability, food and health, to biotechnology, horticulture, and agriculture, from new materials to ethics and from molecules to the universe and every bio entity in-between, natural and synthetic.
In 2025, the 15th edition of the BAD Award is made possible by MU Hybrid Art House and connected to an extensive network of current and former scientific and cultural partners from Eindhoven and the Netherlands, amongst which are BioArt Laboratories, Dutch Design Foundation, MU Hybrid Art House, Next Nature Museum, NWO and ZonMW.
