Turner Duckworth brief a hit with design students

Following our collaboration with the D&AD Student Award team, our Homebase Grow Your Own packaging and point of sale brief was a resounding success with D&AD. It received 4,500 downloads and 250 entries - making it one of the top 5 most successful student briefs in the award’s 35-year history.
Judging took place in April in London and as you can see from the picture, the judges including Bruce Duckworth and senior designer Jamie McCathie had their work cut out reviewing the huge volume of entries in a single day. Bruce Duckworth commented “We are delighted with how popular the brief was, it was a great opportunity to give something back to design education via D&AD. The chosen designs show the great potential of these graduating designers, they are worthy winners.”
Both Bruce and Jamie will be attending the Student Award Ceremony on Thursday 2nd July in London.
