D&AD WINNER!



Yesterday Chris Howker and Ian Murray attended the prestigious D&AD student award ceremony at Spitalfields Market in London. It was announced that Chris came 1st! He is pictured above with 'the pencil' and alongside with Patrick Burgoyne editor of Creative Review and Phil Nutley from Corridor.

The entrants were asked to create an image on the theme of Resistance, with the winning design printed on 80,000 of the iconic Don’t Panic pack posters.

Phil Nutley from Corridor and one of the deciding judges explained why he felt Chris’ entry deserved the prize, “For me the piece had a strong process of thought and ideas. The final execution was witty, bright and challenged social paradigms.”
