Tigerprint at New Designers

So it was great visiting New Designers Part 1 yesterday and I was lucky enough to meet lots of great designers who we will hopefully be working with in the near future. It was also great to put so many faces to names as quite a few of our regular competition entrants were exhibiting.

The Tigerprint Gifted Competition stand looked amazing and you should definitely stop by in person if you get a chance.

  Vic gets her design head on!

It was also great to meet the Tigerprint Award winner Carrie Osborne from Leeds College of Art and Design and below is a pic of her stand.

 
We were also delighted to hear that Carrie's fellow student Louise Tiler won the BDC New Designer of The Year. We've been fans of Louise's work since working with her on a college project at Leeds College of Art and she has since worked extensively for us on a number of projects.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Best of British - New Designers Personalised Range

We love to collaborate with design students & graduates, and here is another example of working with a talented bunch. Throughout 2010 / 11 the Gifted? team have worked with 2010's New Designers exhibitors (spotted at New Designers) and current 2nd / 3rd year students (via College projects) to create a range of cards for the Marks & Spencer personalised site. The brief was to celebrate the Best of British and they've all done a great job. Click here to see the full range and look at the inside view of the card to see which talented Designer they belong to.
