From Bangkok To The Global Stage.
Glowin Brands Wins at the 19th International Design Awards (IDA)
IDA Awards Winners: Packaging Design
At Glowin Brands, we have always believed that a clear, dedicated brand strategy can produce work that stands up to the highest standards. On February 8, 2026, that belief was validated at the 19th International Design Awards (IDA) Gala held at ICONSIAM, Bangkok. Standing on that stage wasn't just about receiving trophies; it was about a specialized branding studio from Thailand proving that intentional design carries a universal mark of excellence.
Our wins for JUZA and Loong Foong represent a milestone in our journey: a journey dedicated to showing that when local creativity meets international rigor, the results are truly world-class.

A Double Celebration: Bronze & Honorable Mention
To be evaluated by a professional jury and scored against the world’s most elite talent is a testament to the synergy between our team and our visionary clients.
Bronze in Packaging (Beverage): JUZA - The Spark of Joy.
We developed the identity for JUZA to stand out in the competitive Thai beverage market. By fusing Japanese minimalism with high-energy Thai "Za" (fizz), we created a brand identity that commands "shelf magnetism." This award proves that a local brand, when built on a foundation of global design standards, possesses the visual credibility to thrive in any market.
Honorable Mention in Branding: Loong Foong - Legacy Reimagined.
For the iconic Chinese restaurant Loong Foong at Swissôtel Bangkok Ratchada, our mission was to honor tradition while inviting a new generation of diners. This recognition highlights our expertise in Intentional Design, creating brand identities that are felt and understood the moment a guest interacts with them..

"Beyond the trophies, we feel a deep sense of gratitude," says Timi Au , Founder & Design Director of Glowin Brands."This win belongs to our dedicated GB team’s relentless synergy and the clients who trust a boutique agency to push the envelope.
At the heart of our work is a unique harmony: the fluid imagination of Bangkok met with the sharp rigor of Hong Kong. It is this balance that allows us to take a brand’s potential and elevate it to its highest expression. When design is this intentional, it resonates far beyond its borders."
