D&AD Annual '18
Each year, D&AD’s Annual brings together the ‘best of the best’ in creative work; a bible of inspiring projects from around the globe for anyone part of the design and advertising industry.
This year, the Book brings together the creative efforts of President Steve Vranakis and designers Magpie Studio.
The Annual is available to purchase for £75, or free with a D&AD Membership.
The Story
In his final act as President, Steve Vranakis tasked designers Magpie Studio with reflecting D&AD’s mission to safeguard and promote creative skills for the future.
The Annual’s front cover is cut in half to make space for the Manual – a detachable book aimed at aspiring creatives that are yet to enter the industry. It walks the reader through the entire creative process, from the first brief to the big idea, with plenty of insights along the way, including contributions from D&AD Black Pencil winners Michael Johnson (Johnson Banks), Bjorn Stahl (INGO Stockholm) and Alice Tonge (4creative).
We encourage anyone getting an Annual this year to pass the Manual on to an up and coming creative and support their rise through the industry.
