THE PSYCHEDELICS DESIGN AWARDS 2025
The Winners and Finalists of the Annual Design Awards
Each year, the Psychedelics Design Awards honor the creatives, thinkers, and makers who are using psychedelic insight—literal or metaphorical—to shape a more connected, regenerative world.
From bold visual identities to healing-centered spaces, our finalists and winners show what’s possible when design meets expanded thinking. Their work doesn’t just solve problems—it transforms how we see and shape the world.
Explore the finalists across seven categories—and meet the winners, including our community-voted Mushroom of the Year.
