SPONSORED BY BILLERUD
Our 60th GDUSA anniversary showcase reflects graphic design's shape and service to commerce and culture. Winners run the gamut from traditional to new media; from inspirational assignments to bread and butter projects; from large creative agencies and departments to boutique design studios and freelancers and, of course, student work; from established stars to rising newcomers; and from red states and blue. This annual competition was originally founded as the ‘Desi’ (Design) Awards and is officially the American Graphic Design Awards.™ Publisher Gordon Kaye has some
thoughts on those 60 years.
