“GDUSA’s American Inhouse Design Awards™ are the original and premier showcase for outstanding work by inhouse creative professionals. This year’s gallery reflects the many and varied ways inhouse creatives advance the mission and build value. It serves as powerful testimony that the inhouse value proposition — creative professionals who have a deep and intimate knowledge of the institutional identity, culture and objectives are perfectly positioned to deliver effective and authentic communication — is alive and well, and especially relevant given the challenges of the annus horribilis that is 2020.”
Below you will find the winning entries from NCPA (where I work) as well as 9 of my other favorite winning entries! There are over 20 categories ranging from motion design to editorial design to announcements + invitations to COVID-19 communications and more!
