Winners! Well, 2nd Place...and that's still pretty darn terrific!

Last Night, in the opulent Grand Ballroom of the Hyatt Regency Chicago, The Dieline Awards 2015 were presented to this year's group of outstanding packaging designs across a wide range of categories. 

We were amazed to find out that we took 2nd place in the 'Sports, Toys, Recreational and Games' category, narrowly beating out packaging for the Karl Lagerfeld Barbie, and beat only by the slick, hand assembled packaging for this sexy YoYo. Check out their post about our winning entry here. You can see our award acceptance video below.

The other categories have some well deserved winners amongst them, so head on over to take a look at them here. 

Above you can see Andrew Gibbs of The Dieline presenting awards live from the stage in front of an audience of over 1000 creatives.

The awards were handed out as part of the HOW Design Live conference which is taking place in Chicago from May 4 - 8. The conference is the biggest gathering of creative professionals anywhere and hosts four days of talks and events designed to inspire, inform and empower creative professionals.

Jon is there today, scoping things out. He sent us this photo of the CLUG display in the awards presentation area. Pretty neat!

We're still riding high on the news so expect to see a few posts about it on our social media accounts!
