Welcome to our 21st annual showcase of the power of design to enhance online communications and experiences. From more than 2,300 entries, the outstanding work included here has been created by design firms, ad agencies, in-house departments, and more. It encompasses, websites, microsites, apps, online advertising, social media, video, and UX/UI Design. Our one big takeaway? We are seeing a happy convergence of several forces: greater demand than ever for online communications; richer and more stable creative and delivery tools and technologies; and a markedly more sophisticated appreciation and integration of sound graphic and UX design principles. It’s all leading to a new era of more humane, satisfying, effective, and useful online experiences.
