19th Stereohype Button Badge Design Competition (2026)

The call for entries for the 19th international Stereohype Button Badge Design Competition is now open.

If you are 18+ and into design, illustration, typography, photography or visual experimentation, submit a maximum of four original badge artworks in total. Enter them as individual designs, a set of four, or a combination of both.

This time, Stereohype will award a total of six prizes – five main, and a special prize – and will award all kinds of printed goodies with the winning designs, books and more.

Create something lovely, humorous, witty, strange, beautiful or otherwise irresistible for those cute little mobile canvases.

The competition is open in two categories: “Single Badge” and “Sets of 4”.

Eligible are entries by designers, artists, photographers, illustrators and students in any of these areas, including runners-up from previous competitions.

Founded in 2004, Stereohype is a graphic art label and online boutique co-founded and directed by Tomi Vollauschek.

In 2014 Stereohype celebrated its 10th anniversary with a large retrospective exhibition as part of London Design Festival and hosted by London College Of Communication (LCC), University of the Arts. The popular show was extended and ran for a whopping 8 weeks.

Please check the Artwork Guide on the official website for details.
