As one of two Marketing Awards juries to have met in person last week, our panel of experts adjudicating the Design entries for the 2017 awards show had their work cut out for them. The quality of the entries this year proved to be world class in many cases, with several pieces of design work taking home gold. While we won’t be revealing who those gold winners were until the Marketing Awards Gala on June 13th, below you can find all of the entries that made the 2017 Design shortlist. Chairing our design jury this year was Castor Design partner and industry veteran Steve Mykolyn, who was joined by six design experts to assess the shortlist and determine our medal winners:

• Mikey Richardson, Jacknife Design
• Ben Feist, Blast Radius
• Diti Katona, Concrete Design
• Jan Avendano, Art & Mechanical
• Paul Hodgson, Trajectory/Faculty at OCAD
• Alison Garnett, Field Trip & Co.

Joining our main jury for online voting were Monique Gamache of Wax, Danielle Krysa, also known as The Jealous Curator, and Will Novosedlik of Idea Couture. Below you will find the entries that made it through our first round of online voting and are in contention to win a medal at the 2017 Marketing Awards Gala.
