Now that WantedDesign Manhattan 2023 has wrapped, we’re thrilled to share the final winners for the Best of Students and Schools, a showcase sponsored by iconic Italian housewares brand Alessi and presented with Design Milk.

Vibrant coral reefs and their residents attract travellers from all over the world to take the plunge.
