Images Speak, a Designmatters publication documenting the health education materials developed as part of the Mpala project, was just awarded a Silver Spark Award!
The Spark Awards is an international design competition recognizing student and professional achievements in creating “designs that make a difference.” Some of the design categories included architecture & interiors, product, digital, mobility, and world-changing–a new category for “design for the other 90%” and the policies, systems and services needed to design a sustainable existence–which Images Speak was entered in.
The book was honored on October 3, 2008, at the Spark Awards Celebration in San Francisco. Art Center Illustration student, Sara Hofmann, lead art director and illustrator of the book, attended the ceremony where the book was showcased at the Autodesk Design Gallery.
