This year, roughly 1,000 pieces were presented the GD USA Design annual. Slowly but surely, over four decades, our Annual has become a meeting place for the best and the brightest.

Media diversity abounds: print and collateral, package design and in-store graphics, advertising and sales promotion, invitations and announcements, direct mail and catalogs, magazines and books, broadcast and film and - surprise, surprise - more internet and interactive pieces than ever. Diverse, too, are the organizations and clients: Fortune 500 companies and entrepreneurial start-ups, consumer and business-to-business ventures, political and religious organizations, governments and trade associations, universities and cultural institutions.

"Splinters" was selected based on the cover design and interior layout design of the 160 pg, full color book that has pictures weaving throughout the layout—making it more reader friendly and setting the bar for designers everywhere.  

The book boasts great layouts are the beginning of all effective visual communication. This 384 page book will showcase only the best layouts in a variety of disciplines, including publication design (books and magazines) to print design (menus, brochures, posters) and more.

Mercedes-Benz, Target, Capital One, and Paige1Media. What do all these have in common? They're all winners in the 15th Annual Communicator Awards for Print Marketing and Brand Identity excellence. Paige1Media won Gold this year in the "Non-Profit Brochure" category and the "Business Card" category. Last year she won Silver so this was a big deal! Although the recognition and trophy award was nice, the most rewarding thing about it is the fact that we have the best clients anyone could ask for - you guys! So here's to more award-winning work for only the best. You can read the press release below.
