LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER | WELCOME TO THE INHOUSE DESIGN ANNUAL

Welcome to GDUSA’s 57th anniversary American Inhouse Design Awards edition. It features a showcase of winners of the original and premier competition for inhouse design departments. This year’s competition began as the full impact of the pandemic began to be felt; continued through the national protests, the fraying of the social fabric and the early stages of a divisive election campaign; and, of course, managed to conclude during severe east coast storms and power outages. Yet, it shapes up as among the biggest and certainly best of our Design Annuals. Which strongly suggests that inhouse people are vital, productive, resilient and future-oriented. Or, as is the case here at GDUSA, some mix of crazy and stubborn. GORDON KAYE IS THE PUBLISHER OF GDUSA Comments, suggestions and letters can be sent to gkaye @ gdusa.com.

I vote for vital, productive, resilient and future-oriented; more on this later. ESPECIALLY SWEET As for the 2020 competition itself, the winning pieces were selected from more than 6,000 entries — just short of a record number — that span the country and touch every segment of the public, private and non-profit sectors. The winning pieces showcase graphic design for commerce and culture at its best by professionals who ably advance their client's objectives and build meaningful value for their organizations, products, services, causes, ideas. The design is smart, it is appealing, it is strategic, it uses the full range of media available. As we have noted before, receiving an American Inhouse Design Award is a triumph on many levels: a personal feat of talent and hard work; a collaborative accomplishment for a team working together to advance an organization’s goals; and a victory for all those who toil inhouse and may not garner the recognition and reward they deserve. For our winners the moment is especially sweet, since the path to a successful design solution is often steeper than for their counterparts at independent agencies. Suffice it to say that working in a corporate setting can trigger existential challenges — measuring the immeasurable value that design and communications add, justifying one’s place to senior management in order to secure the resources and freedom to do the job right, overcome the inherent conservatism of institutions to creative risk, gaining credit and recognition inside and outside, and growing as a professional. The American Inhouse Design Awards program addresses these matters, turns conventional wisdom on its head, declares that the best inhouse work is the stuff of design annuals and — most importantly — a fundamental contribution to the institutional mission and to the audiences served.

LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER | WELCOME TO THE INHOUSE DESIGN ANNUAL CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4

PARADISE NO. PROGRESS YES. In the sweep of design history, it is fair to say that inhouse departments are better situated than ever. Graphic design is understood to play a critical role in the success of products, services, information and ideas, and it is clear that more and more design and marketing departments are successfully pushing against past constraints and converting upper management. As a result, the contribution that design can make is better understood and respected, inhouse positions are considered more attractive, the light often shines on inhouse accomplishments, and inhouse designers are winning a seat at the table if not always the boardroom. Paradise, no. Progress, yes. ALL IN THIS TOGETHER The unfortunate events of 2020 can only speed this upward trajectory. First, inhouse departments have been remarkably agile and adaptable at mastering the technology, infrastructure and managerial resources to make remote working successful. On this, the experts all agree. This has led to surprising degree of productivity, an unexpectedly smooth transition, and a growing consensus that remote, or at least flexible, work is the wave of the future. Inhouse professionals find themselves at the cutting edge of radical workplace change. Second, inhouse departments, at their best, foster consistent collaboration, communications and trust between and among inhouse creative professionals and upper management. These characteristics and practices — collaboration, communication, trust — have proven to be just the soft skill set necessary to promote efficiency and effectiveness at a moment of disruption and challenge. Third, and perhaps most important, an inhouse department’s true value proposition is its intimate knowledge of the institutional identity, corporate culture and organizational objectives. At their best, they are keepers and protectors of the torch, in a unique position to express the essence, the authenticity, the credibility and character of an institution, its products, services and ideas. At a time when organizations and brands must grapple with the realities and demands of the pandemic, with shifts in purchasing decisions and consumer behavior, with a reckoning with new perspectives on race and inequality, with a breakdown in social trust, inhouse departments are proving up to the task because, in a sense, they have long been preparing for this challenge. A related thought. It is no surprise that the largest number of entries in this year’s competition involve COVID-19 and related communications. On the surface, many of the designs address health and safety rules, issues and guidelines. Those projects and campaign make a crucial contribution to our collective well-being in and of themselves. But they often have a broader goal or subtext: an expression that the company, organization or institution cares about its employees, customers, the broader community; a declaration of hope and a reaffirmation of presence; a rallying cry that we are all in this together and will prevail. How valuable are individuals and departments who can communicate clearly, credibly, authentically and compassionately at a moment when despair and distrust are running high? The correct answer: priceless.

| 2020 | GDUSA’s American Inhouse Design Awards™ is the original and premier showcase for outstanding work done by inhouse designers and their departments. This year’s showcase of roughly 400 projects — there were a near record 6,000+ entries — reflects the many and varied ways in which inhouse creatives advance the mission and build value for their organizations, brands, products, services, causes and ideas. It also serves as powerful testimony that the inhouse value proposition — creative professionals who have a deep and intimate knowledge of the institutional identity, culture and objectives are perfectly positioned to deliver effective and authentic communication — is alive and well — and especially relevant in light of the challenges presented by the annus horribilis that is 2020.

ELIMINATE RACIAL BIAS IN BRANDING ELLE MORRIS that’s culturally unnatural so you won’t get fired? The idea that any American had to experience any of these situations was appalling to almost everyone. There was shame and disbelief that our Black friends and family had been living a parallel life — one that we see and another that we did not or chose not to see — which was difficult and constantly filled with fear and indignity. How could we have all been so entitled and blind for so long? THE BRANDS WE LOVE Pepsi did it first. In a radical but righteous move, Pepsi announced that it was dropping the brand name and image of the Aunt Jemima brand because of racial bias. That move sent a shock wave through the marketing and design community. If Pepsi was doing this, then certainly other brands like Uncle Ben’s, Cream of Wheat and Mrs. Butterworth’s should do the same thing. Most followed suit with announcements later in the week and at a minimum committed to

ELLE MORRIS is founder and CEO of SnapDragon Branding Design Consultancy, a minority and women-owned and led firm. She is Irish Cuban and her husband of over 20 years is Black. Morris has been working in the Black Beauty Care segment since 2002 when she was a team member for the Pantene Relaxed & Natural launch while with LPK. She also led work on Fashion Fair Skin and Makeup as well as Latina-based insights for Beauty Retail while at LPK. She and SnapDragon created the Just for Me Curl Peace design (a GDUSA award winner) and the Queen Helene redesign in 2019. Being Latina with bi-racial family has compelled Morris to speak to the industry since 2009 about African American and Latina beauty consumers, the difference in habits and practices and the unmet needs of these consumers. The firm draws upon designers and marketers with culturally appropriate backgrounds for work and leverages their expertise to bring consumers the brands that they love with beauty and cultural meaning.

POLITICIANS WAKE UP TO THE POWER OF DESIGN CHARLES NIX

portantly, Decimal is new to the political landscape; Biden’s campaign is the first to use it for political messaging. Biden, of course, isn’t alone in using design to amplify his message and convey ethos in the process. Politicians are realizing there’s a powerful connection between typographic voice and one’s actual voice. Through typography and other elements of visual identity, candidates are branding themselves in novel ways. By setting aside old-fashioned design tropes, these campaigns are separating themselves from the past and creating authentic connections to 2020 voters. Political design is evolving to better represent diverse voices of candidates and communicate with citizens seeking change. THE NEW JOHN HANCOCK

long understood: a cohesive and impactful visual identity is critical to a successful campaign.In recent weeks, presumptive Democratic nominee and former Vice President Joe Biden made headlines by choosing two new campaign typefaces, Decimal and Mercury, from Hoefler & Co. Intended to reinforce his 2020 campaign’s mantra of “the battle for the soul of the nation,” the faces are conservative and well-groomed — a shrewd choice and a stark contrast to his opponent’s dissonant type and design choices. Mercury is bookish, smart and historically inflected. Decimal is fresh and unique, but familiar. Perhaps most im-

Candidates use script typefaces and stylized signatures to communicate honesty, trust and approachability. We all have our own signature and we all have our handwriting. By using this relatable form of letters, candidates hope to create a sympathetic connection to their constituents. However, scripts are still a sideshow to sans serifs — for candidates of all political stripes. Big, bold, all-caps sans is the loudest voice in the room. And, sans serifs as support type provide a clean and easy to read counterpoint — the calm reassurance of a plain-spoken leader.

DIGITAL DESIGN MATTERS MORE THAN EVER RYAN BROWN

1. Engages Audiences On A Deeper Level Have you ever visited a website only to scroll rapidly, click through a few pages, then close out? Chances are, that website didn’t prioritize creativity and design. Great digital design engages audiences while creativity helps to connect with them on a deeper level through every step of their journey — cutting down their temptation to close out and move on to the next shiny digital distraction. 2. Communicates With Compelling Visual Stories When we meet a new person, we want to know their story (and the more compelling it is, the more we care). The same goes for brands.

5 WAYS TO BUILD A WORKPLACE CULTURE CREATIVES WILL LOVE BY DIANE DOMEYER

it. And when they do, positively reinforce this behavior by praising both the person who sought help and the one who gave it. Whatever your communication strategy, make sure it encompasses the whole team, wherever they’re based. With many people working remotely due to the pandemic, tools like Microsoft Teams, Slack, Google Hangouts and Zoom can help keep the conversation flowing. If you want your workforce to remain engaged and productive, they need to feel connected in as many ways as possible, including participating in text and video chats. 2. Trust Your Team — And Don’t Micromanage In a healthy organizational culture, workers want managers to be on their side, not by their side. Hovering over your employees’ shoulders, even virtually, can stifle productivity and drain morale. Trust your team, and give them space to use their skills and creativity. Trusting your staff also means embracing their willingness to take risks and try new approaches — including ones that fail. If one of your designers comes up with a brilliant pitch that’s rejected by the client, they may feel crushed — which is precisely the time for you to show your appreciation of their work, reframe it as a good creative risk to have taken, and encourage them to learn from the experience and keep breaking the mold. 3. Manage Conflict and Promote Debate

4. Invest In Professional Development To attract and retain top talent, prove your firm is a place where creative professionals can grow. Whether it’s offering mentorships, increased responsibility or training in leading-edge design software, investing in professional development shows you care about your staff and want them to succeed. By embracing a spirit of learning and continuous improvement, you not only reduce staff turnover, but also end up with a highly skilled workforce that improves your bottom line. 5. Broadcast Your Success Find ways to show potential hires what it’s like to work at your company before they apply so they can judge for themselves whether they’d be a good fit. Ask your team to come up with attention-grabbing ways to tell your firm’s story via social media, your website and other channels. And whatever you produce, keep it real. A quirky Day in the Life of Our Art Director video may more likely appeal to experienced candidates than a slick promotion about how your company is crushing the competition. Building an organizational culture isn’t a one-step process. As your firm evolves, your culture needs to evolve with it. But the benchmark for success is always be the same: If the people you most want to work for you are attracted to your firm and your team is happy
