Studio Spotlight: Turner Duckworth Revisited

Turner Duckworth (previous Studio Spotlight here) has had a fabulous year! They have won over 40 major awards in the past 12 months. Most recently they have won "Agency of the Year" at the FAB Awards, the first time in the history of the event it was awarded to a design firm versus an advertising agency. They also won Best of Show and a FAB award for Brand Identity.

Turner Duckworth's winning work, selected among 3600 entries from 36 countries, was their brand identity for Coca-Cola. Originally planned only for North America, their visual identity system is now to be implemented globally. As the judges noted, “Quite simply the best piece of work this year by far. To do it for such an iconic brand is a fantastic achievement.”

“This win demonstrates the growing influence of design as the serious brand communication tool in the world today,” says David Turner.

“We have always believed in clear communication, beautifully executed work and a touch of wit,” says Bruce Duckworth. “Our achievements this year are thanks to hard work, a great team, great clients... and a bit of fun.”
