LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER

WELCOME TO THE 58TH DESIGN ANNUAL I have been trying to meditate using a popular app called Ten Percent Happier. With greater or lesser — mostly lesser — degrees of success.

Some days I can calm the mind, focus on the sensation of breathing, and attain a profound sense of relaxation. Some days I tap my feet or clear my throat to the profound irritation of my long-suffering spouse. And some days I close my eyes and secretly smile at my favorite meme of a doughnut meditating in order to find its center. I am especially drawn to the doughnut image if the session is before dinner.

My practice is spotty but the goal is consistent: to find a way to shut out the noise that surrounds and distracts — amplified by the truly strange circumstances of pandemic and polarization — in order to concentrate on what is real and what is essential.

GORDON KAYE IS THE PUBLISHER OF GDUSA Comments, suggestions and letters can be sent to gkaye @ gdusa.com.

Which brings me, the long way round, to a point. Way back in 1998, GDUSA published a special issue on the state and future of graphic design. Like so much industry babble, the edition largely dealt with what styles were hot, what products were cool, what techniques were promising, what firms were the flavor of the month. These are not unimportant things, much like our explorations today of what mix of digital and print to use, whether remote working will survive, what diversity really means, should today’s logos be flat or embellished, and the like.

But, then, one of the participating designers made a statement that, back in the 20th century, was a bit off the grid: “Design isn’t about what something looks like. It is about what something is.” For me, this simple phrase hit like a bolt of lightning — a moment of clarity and lucidity — when the noise drops away and the essence is revealed. That insight has shaped the way I make sense of the myriad design solutions I have been blessed to see or note in the years since.

In this spirit, I am especially pleased to present our 58th American Graphic Design Awards Annual. The pieces showcased — and their creators — are among the best and brightest — and most resilient — of our community. The numbers alone are prodigious: a swell of 11,000+ entries leading to a showcase of 600 pieces reflecting the endless ways in which first-rate graphic design shapes commerce, culture, ideas and causes.

Equally exciting is the sheer breadth of it all. Projects run the gamut from traditional print and packaging and p-o-p to websites and apps and social media, from dream assignments to bread and butter endeavors, from Fortune 500 companies to non-profits, from ad agencies and design studios to inhouse departments and student projects, from red states to blue. Represented are great and established creative minds as well as many striving to grow, learn and secure their place in the sun.

Most significant to me about 2021, though, is that graphic designers are mastering as never before their special power — to effectively crystallize and express the essence of a company, a brand, a product, a culture, a cause. To discover and express the truth of the thing. As seen in project after project after project. And, happily, this ability, in turn, is making effective graphic design indispensable because clients are coming to understand the value of authenticity, transparency, and human connection in a (fingers-crossed) post-pandemic world. If there are any silver linings to be had, out of the crucible we can expect an even more influential creative profession to emerge.

I hope you enjoy our 58th GDUSA Design Annual.

2021 intro-index.qxp_Layout 1 12/16/21 9:59 AM Page 11

We present a showcase of roughly 700 projects — from a rise to more than 11,000 entries — that reflect the many ways in which graphic design shapes business and society — and is a source of clarity and lucidity at a moment of murk and confusion.

Winners run the gamut from print and packaging to internet and interactive, from dream assignments to bread and butter endeavors, from established stars to rising newcomers, from red states to blue.

That this is among the largest of our GDUSA Design Annual’s says nothing about us but a lot about the resilience of creative professionals, the value of design, and the complexity of the human condition. We get knocked down, but we keep getting back up for more and, sometimes, for better.

The annual is sponsored by Verso Corporation. You can see all the pieces here as well as on our website and your mobile devices at gdusa.com or in our digital edition at gdusa.com/magazine/issuu

IT’S TIME TO TURN THE PAGE ON PAPER SPECIFICATION. Making an informed paper selection is key to making print that stands out and creates impact. That’s why Mohawk has refined and reorganized their paper portfolio into 5 distinct Collections that help make choosing paper by its properties and attributes easier. All the legendary grades that Mohawk produces still exist, but the new Mohawk Collections give you a simpler, more straightforward way to think about paper.

HOW EVOLUTIONARY SEARCH PATTERNS INFLUENCE CONSUMER PURCHASE DECISIONS — AND HOW TO DESIGN FOR THEM

BY RICHARD SHEAR

GDUSA is publishing a series of four articles from Richard Shear on “How Evolutionary Search Patterns Influence Consumer Purchase Decisions – and How To Design For Them.”

PART 2: THAT REMINDS ME – ASSOCIATED SEARCH AND BRAND EQUITY Imagine you are traveling down a path on a new and unfamiliar mountainside on a bright summer day— you're hungry — and as you crest a hillside, you look down and see fields filled with familiar bushes. As you approach them, you recognize the berries and spend the afternoon devouring them with pleasure. Your willingness to try the berries you know in a place you've never been is what we would call a search informed by learned experience. While something about the circumstance may be new, your experience suggests it will be good for you.

If our story took place in a supermarket aisle, why might a consumer reach for your brand? It could be a visual element like a logo or the package's shape, or perhaps they are prompted by an endorsement or positive experience.

CAMPBELL’S LTO SUSTAINABILITY PACKAGING DESIGNED BY INVOK BRANDS

The brand marketer's challenge is deciding how to use When searching in a field of berries, or a retail environment, we gravitate towards things we have associations with. It's a measure of comfort that comes from, for

example, a brand you trust. While you may not have bought this brand's breakfast cereal, you have had good experiences with its other products. You are intrigued and confident because, as with the berries, it reminds you of a pleasant experience. And what do we call this in the realm of marketing?

Perhaps no soup can is iconic as Campbell's. In the spring and summer of 2021, the company ran a limited-time Garden Vegetable Minestrone, and Creamy Tomato Soup offer to educate the consumer about its sustainable farming practices. This offering included a can-topping coaster of tomato seeds for the consumer to plant. To

tainability? We were very aware of the challenge to marry Campbell's brand equity with its desired messaging.

Using Campbell's brand guidelines and our smarts, our design powerfully communicated both so that each design element speaks to communicate flavor and sustainability over brand.

For example, the Campbell’s logo has center-stage, large and white. The giving-hands icon offers a seed, sharing the message of sustainability in an approachable, Zen, and nurturing feel. The linear elements that separate the type are intentionally natural. The green background has a texture of handcrafted paper.

Brand association goes beyond product categories and even beyond demographics. Consumers have different views and perspectives. If you have a global brand, you

RICHARD SHEAR is a professor at New York's School of Visual Arts and teaches in the Masters of Branding program. He is Chief Creative Officer at Invok Brands, where he uses his consumer search pattern framework to help clients get an edge. Invok Brands has conceived a new way to evaluate branding and package design that considers how consumers locate, assess, and select categories of products. These four consumer search patterns are universal and based on the history of consumer behavior — even before retail. This is the second in a series of articles that will help you find the technique that applies to your brand and use it.

NEW ROLE WITH THE COMPANY? HERE’S HOW TO ACE THE TRANSITION

BY PAUL FLAHARTY

The environment is the same, but the challenges are new. Be it via promotion

Much of what I’ve learned through my career moves at Robert Half applies to anyone hoping to ace their internal transfer, be it a move into a new department or starting a

responsibilities in a familiar setting also brings unique concerns.

START YOUR ONBOARDING EARLY Many creative professionals work best when they can focus

Should you aim to hit the ground running or ease yourself in gently? What should you do when your former team asks for help? What’s the right approach when assuming a leadership position?

I’ve had several opportunities to ponder these questions during my career journey at Robert Half — an exciting ride that’s taken me through several roles, leading to my current position as Executive Director of our marketing and creative practice. As part of this transition, I’d like to introduce myself to you. I’ve worked in recruiting for more than 18 years, and 13 years in the creative field specifically. I’m thrilled to be taking on this new role, which includes sharing job search, career and management advice and trends with you.

their mental energy on the job at hand. If the first few days in your new role feature nothing but onboarding and orientation, that’s not likely to happen.

With an internal transfer, you can lay some groundwork.

Use your institutional knowledge and contacts in HR to kick off onboarding from the moment you accept the new job or even ahead of your first day in the position. Be proactive about requesting access to reading materials that will help you better understand your new role and team. Talk to your new manager and your firm’s IT support about getting a head start on any software or security training you might need. This is particularly important in the age of remote and hybrid working, when individual teams are more likely to diverge from centralized practices.
