The Society of Environmental Graphic Design (SEGD), Washington, DC, announced its new online registration system for the SEGD Design Awards program. Now, entrants can upload images, text and other entry information. Designers, fabricators, clients and students are invited to submit their work at www.segd.org.
The new system requires a one-time account setup regardless of how many entries are submitted. Entries remain open and accessible until entrants are ready to submit them. Hard copies of text, entry forms, or images will no longer be required. Online registration also eliminated delivery charges.
SEGD’s annual design competition honors the best in environmental graphic design. Projects include dynamic environments, themed environments, wayfinding and signage, placemaking projects, mapping, public art, identity programs, architectural graphics, exhibits, and retail; also included are student work and un-built projects. Images of winning entries from previous years may be viewed on the Design Awards page at www.segd.org.
Program entries must be submitted no later than January 29, 2010; late entries will be accepted through February 12, 2010. The 2010 SEGD Design Awards jury will be chaired by Henry Beer, co-founder of CommArts.
Award winners will be announced at a presentation during SEGD’s Annual Conference + Expo, to be held in Washington, DC, June 2-5, 2010.
