“As Jury Chair of the 2012 One Show Design awards competition, I was thrilled to collaborate with 10 other top global talents, each of whom brought his and her own professional creative experience and unique perspective to the judges table.  While we viewed and discussed thousands of amazing pieces, we all came together in the end with a singular view of the best; the printed piece The Solar Annual report for Austria Solar that we celebrate this evening,” said Pum Lefebure, co-founder and Creative Director at Design Army and 2012 One Show Design Jury Chair. 

“This is the first annual report powered by the sun, with content remaining invisible until sunlight falls on the page. It truly exhibits where innovation, creativity, and craft comes together. While the media may be changing, one thing never does: powerful design always leaves a lasting impression on our eyes and in our minds,” Ms. Lefebure continued.

A total of 3,400 entry pieces from 40 countries around the world were received for this year’s One Show Design award competition, which is annually produced by The One Club.  One Show Design winners also included 23 Silver Pencil and 35 Bronze Pencil awards.
