Metadesign wins two awards at IF Awards

 The branding agency Metadesign has won two prizes at this year's IF Communication Design Awards: The jury honored the new appearance of NZZ Online and a project for the tire manufacturer Continental. Metadesign Zurich developed the concept for the relaunch of the news and umbrella brand portal NZZ Online. According to the agency, it is based on a design framework that is stringent yet modular and scalable. The design focuses on the editorial content and dispenses with superfluous gestures. For Continental's "Everyday Heroes" campaign, the laurels go to Metadesign Berlin: the agency has developed a visual world that uses dramatic-looking black and white photographs to tell of the challenges that long-distance, bus and car drivers overcome every day on the world's roads.
Almost 1,300 entries from 16 countries were submitted for this year's IF Awards. An international jury evaluated the entries and honored 310 of them.
