I’m always excited to take a good look at the winners of the ADC Young Guns awards and, of course, scope out the competition.
I honestly think each year keeps getting better, more diverse, and maybe even younger. I enjoy seeing more and more young design with a basis in ideas and not just style, design that communicates in provocative ways, emotional ways and, of course, funny ways. It is extremely difficult to select just a few from this amazing class but I managed to choose eight of my personal favorites to talk with. I’ve asked questions that hopefully give some insight into the minds of these designers and maybe even reveal a few secrets for us to learn from.
Stayed tuned throughout the week for brief interviews with:
- Jessica Walsh
- Frank Chimero
- Tomas Mankovsky
- Micah Lidberg
- HelloVon
- Jennifer Daniel
- Christine Gignac
- Always With Honor
