On February 5 and 6, 2010, the international jury for the “Best Book Design from all over the World” competition met to judge the entries from around the world. 634 books from 32 countries were submitted to the jury for evaluation. Fourteen prizes were to be awarded: a “Golden Letter,” one gold medal, two silver medals, five bronzes, and five honorable mentions. The international awards ceremony took place on March 19, 2010.
The jury’s words about the book Migropolis (a project supported by censhare AG): “An extremely complex, multifaceted theme has been translated into a book design of the highest quality! The book’s outstanding visual patterns and typographically attractive essays are very winning. Although the type size is small, it is nevertheless easy to read. The field research done in the city of Venice (with picture essays, visual data, written essays, interviews, and case studies) has been given an exemplary graphic form here; no less satisfying are the informational graphics.”
