Of the over 11,000 entries received for this year’s competition, GDUSA stated, “That this is among the largest of six decades of this endeavor says nothing about us but a lot about the resilience of creative professionals, the value of design, and the complexity of the human condition.”

This prominent publication has consistently featured student, faculty, and alumni work from The Modern over the last decade, and this year was no exception. “We are proud of the fantastic design work that our alumni and students create, and it is rewarding when industry experts share it with the world,” states The Modern College of Design President, Jessica Barry.
