Rethink wins Yellow Pencil at day two of D&AD

After an impressive showing on day one, Canadian agencies added to their tallies on the second day of the D&AD Awards.

Chief among them was Rethink winning a hard-to-come-by Yellow Pencil for its work on new branding for the National Magazine Awards.

The branding system, created for the awards’ 44th edition last year, aimed to capture a wide breadth of topics and publications by distilling the medium of the magazine down to its simplest form: its spine. The minimalist approach was used across ads for the awards, within the awards annual, on merchandise and on its website.

Rethink also won another Graphite Pencil for “Lost Tapes of the 27 Club,” as well as one for Decalthon’s “Ability Signs.”

Zulu Alpha Kilo also added to its day one awards, winning two Graphite Pencils and one Wood for Pfaff Harley-Davidson’s “Tough Turban,” as well as another Graphite for “The Micropedia of Microagressions.”

Juniper Park\TBWA added an additional Graphite Pencil for “Signals for Help” after winning a Yellow Pencil on the awards’ first day, while FCB/Six picked up another Graphite for its work on Walmart’s “Bedtime Stories.”
