ElectriCities wins three awards for outstanding design from Graphic Design USA
RALEIGH (DEC. 17, 2019) — ElectriCities of North Carolina has won three American Graphic Design Awards from Graphic Design USA for pieces produced that promote the value of public power.
Graphic Design USA’s 56th Design Annual showcases 600 pieces (winnowed from more than 12,000 entries) that reflect the “many ways that graphic design shapes business and society, products and services, commerce and culture and causes. 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,” said Gordan Kaye, GDUSA editor and publisher.
ElectriCities’ award-winning submissions, including an economic development flipbook, an electric vehicle charging station wrap design, and a renewables energy brochure, can be viewed here.
“I’m so proud of our team for promoting the value that public power brings to North Carolina communities,” said Michelle Vaught, ElectriCities Vice President of Communications. “We work hard to clearly and creatively communicate the value of public power and this recognition is a testament to that hard work paying off.”
