Gold
Kansas!, “Sip and Savor” by Shelly Bryant, Andrea Etzel, Natahan Pettengill, Nadia Imafidon, and Kelly Gibson
Love this cover. Excellent typography and clever use of an otherwise standard looking crafted cappuccino photo. Colours are great, the contrasting warm and cool. Very nice!
Silver
Acadiana Profile, “Best Boudin” by Sarah George
Whoa! Now this is awesome. Love the words and picture integration, very, very crafted and well designed. I want to eat that burger and open this magazine.
Bronze
albemarle, “Ferns Ancient and Magical” by Michael Fitts, Alison Dickie, Eden Weathersby, and Robert Llewellyn
Incredible photo! Type is appropriately delicate so as to not overpower the photo.
