D&AD Awards 2020 winners revealed including four Black Pencil awards

D&AD has revealed the winners of its 2020 awards, with four projects claiming the coveted top prize of Black Pencil.

The Design and Art Direction (D&AD) awards have been running for almost 50 years and award different levels of prizes to recognise design work from the past year. This year the competition was held virtually.

Black Pencil winners

The Black Pencil is the highest accolade, and this year four were handed out, including a competition first for typography.

Creative agency FCB Chicago was awarded a Black Pencil in book design for its work on The Gun Violence History Book for Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence. The book centres on a loophole in American law that enables gun violence.

D&AD says that it “visually captures how there has been so much gun violence in America that if it was all captured in a book, it would probably stop a bullet”.

London foundry Family Type is the first typography entry to win a Black Pencil. It won for Universal Sans, a variable typeface that “allows for an extensive range of customisation and unique variations”. It seeks to make “flexible and adaptive type available to a wider audience”.

Another Black Pencil went to FCB/SIX in the digital category for its Go Back to Africa tourism campaign, which turned a racist phrase — “go back to Africa” — into an “uplifting” call to action. The final Black Pencil was awarded in the PR category to INGO Stockholm, David Miami and Publicis Bucharest for a Burger King campaign.

US and UK lead country winners

Overall, 618 pencils were awards. Design had a strong showing. In book design, 14 pencils were awarded, graphic design 60 pencils, magazine and newspaper design 20 pencils and in packaging design 23 pencils.

The US was the most awarded country at this year’s award, followed by the UK and Japan in third place. The President Awards, which honours “true industry heroes” was awarded to Dentsu CCO Yuya Furukawa.

D&AD COO Dara Lynch says: “Looking forward, we will all rely on creative thinkers to help us through this pandemic, so it is vital that we celebrate and stimulate creativity at every chance we get.”

The post D&AD Awards 2020 winners revealed including four Black Pencil awards appeared first on Design Week.

The 18 Best Things to See and Do in Oslo

Image
Posted : 6/26/2020 | June 26th, 2020 Balancing natural beauty, historic architecture, and a modern flair, Oslo , Norway’s beautiful capital, is a city that punches well above its weight. It’s small but bursting with things to do: there are countless museums, spacious parks, and delicious restaurants to keep you busy. It’s close to numerous forests with hiking and biking trails, and there are lots of places to swim in the summer too. However, since it’s expensive, a lot of travelers pass Oslo by. While a visit will certainly eat into your budget, Oslo is definitely worth a couple of days. To help show precisely why you should add it to your itinerary, here are my favorite things to see and do in Oslo:   1. Take a Free Walking Tour I always start my trips off with a free walking tour. They’re a budget-friendly way to see the main sights, learn a little history, meet other travelers, and get access to an expert local guide who can answer all my questions. Free Tour Oslo organ...

Practical Action rebrands to show “how small actions can change the big picture”

Image
NB Studio has created a new identity for Practical Action, a UK development organisation. Practical Action was established in 1966 with the aim of creating appropriate technologies for developing regions of the world. It works primarily in Eastern and Southern Africa, South Asia and Latin America. It was founded by economist and philosopher Fritz Schumacher whose book, Small is Beautiful, champions the concept that small changes can empower people more than big ones. Practical Action’s aim is to provide sustainable technologies – systems that countries can accommodate with their existing resources – instead of providing large-scale aid that cannot be easily sustained. The charity was originally called Intermediate Technology Development Group but was changed to Practical Action in 2005. “Ingenuity People” Nick Finney, founder and creative director at NB Studio, says that the brand update aims to clarify the charity’s function. One of the problems with its previous names, Finne...

The legacy of Life magazine’s images celebrated in new show

Image
When Life magazine was re-launched by magazine magnate Henry Luce in 1936, the idea was to put photojournalism at the forefront and publish only photography-led stories. Readers soon became accustomed to seeing images from around the world that gave them the kind of first-hand insight they’d never previously had. At one point it was selling 13.8 million copies a week, and in its lifetime the magazine commissioned more than 120,000 stories and 10 million photographs. Life was published up until 2000, and to celebrate the contributions the magazine made to documentary photography and photojournalism, Atlas Gallery in London is exhibiting a selection of some of the magazine’s most iconic and influential photographs.
