The World Brand Design Society would like to take this opportunity to thank all talented directors, designers, typographers, illustrators, photographers, artists and creatives who entered the WBDS Creative Design Awards in 2022/23.

Our editors and judges have carefully evaluated hundreds of creative works and have narrowed the selection to 45 exceptional pieces. Among these, 19 have been Commended, 12 awarded Bronze, 11 Silver and 3 Gold. Additionally, two special Black Awards have been presented, and the coveted title of ‘Creative of the Year’ has been awarded.

Black, Gold, 1st Place Winner and this year 'WBDS Creative of the Year' goes to Kirsten Murray's for her exceptional work for the Scottish charity Curiosity Collective where she created a playful and uplifting brand voice inspired by children's questions that speaks up for children's right to learn, play and express themselves; the work has enabled the charity to attract funding from the Scottish Children's Lottery. Kirsten was responsible for the creative strategy, brand naming, visual identity design, tone of voice and website design. Editors stated, "The simplicity, the playfulness and the intelligence in work has transformed this brand into something more meaningful and universally understood."

From Brazil, Renata Alcantara, Caroline Freire, and Marina Reis have won Black and Gold awards and represent 2nd Place Winners for The Danke project. This Brazilian chocolate brand focuses on creating Easter eggs as the perfect gift for both kids and adults. The stand-out packaging design tells the Danke brand story through vintage-inspired illustrations, and a "From our family to yours" concept is just stunning and heartwarming.

Gold and Third Place Winner Qin Luo whose project has an impressive structural packaging design approach. The brief aimed to solve three main problems in the Chinese honey market: standing out among many honey brands, the need for clear information on production dates, and large jars that can cause product waste.

The World Brand Design Society – Creatives Design Awards will reopen on the 1st of May 2023, and we will continue supporting agencies and promoting their work. All creatives can pre-register for the WBDS Awards here, and you can also submit work to be published on our website here.
