08th September 2025, PANAJI, GOA: It was a night of celebration and grandeur as Kyoorius announced the winners of the 2025 Kyoorius Design Awards and the 2025 Kyoorius Young Blood Awards, both, presented by ZEE. After a roaring 3 days of India’s biggest anti-disciplinary design conference, Designyatra at the Taj Cidade de Goa, Horizon, the grand awards night was held amidst an audience of more than a thousand of the Indian design fraternity.

The night started by awarding Red Elephants to the winners of the 2025 Kyoorius Young Blood Awards presented by ZEE, the only awards show in India to champion and recognise the country’s future design and creative talent. Entrants were tasked to answer real briefs from two real brands – Ather and Bingo! (ITC Foods). From a whopping 475+ entries, only 63 made it to The First List. After comprehensive judging, just 22 entries emerged as winners of the Baby Red Elephants. On the stage, the 6 Red Elephants were revealed and awarded.

At the 2025 Kyoorius Design Awards presented by ZEE, ‘Naatak’, a font project by typography studio EkType and ‘Desi Oon’, an animated long-form film by Studio Eeksaurus for the Centre For Pastoralism won the super-exclusive, highly-coveted Black Elephant award that recognises work deemed to be the Best Of Show.

The 2025 Kyoorius Design Awards also awarded 23 Blue Elephants from a pool of 75 Baby Blue Elephants. Over 700 pieces of work were entered into the 2025 Kyoorius Design Awards.

Awards By Kyoorius do not follow a hierarchical structure – there are no golds, silvers or bronze medals. Instead, only the work that deserves recognition wins an Elephant.

Blue Elephants recognise work that set new benchmarks for the industry, while Baby Elephants recognise disruptive, showcase-worthy work. Black Elephants are reserved for work that represents the Best Of Show – work that takes risks, creates new conversations and has a lasting impact on the industry.
