The Review 2018 Design & Print Awards winners were revealed at a ceremony held on 18 September in London. Now in its 27th year, The Review is designed to celebrate those who have created “exceptional” print work using Antalis media.

A record-breaking 492 entries were received this year, with a panel of four industry experts going on to choose the crowning champions of 12 specialist categories in the design and print fields.

The absolute Best in Design was awarded to “Begg & Co Lookbooks” by Studio Small, a catalogue printed by Push London on Olin Rough High White. For Best in Print, “Carpathia” by Opal Print was crowned the standout entry. Designed by The English Group, the brochure used Conqueror Connoisseur Soft White for the cover stock and Edixion Offset for the text stock. Opal Print also topped the Print Brochure category.

The Luxury Packaging and POS Print winner was FE Burman, with “Everyone the Same, Everyone Different” designed by The Yarza Twins and printed on Curious Matter Goya White. Gunter Piekarski was crowned the winner of Design in the same category, with “Lush by the Hand & Flowers Launch Pack”, also printed by FE Burman in collaboration with Screaming Colour. The cover stock was Curious Skin Dark Blue, with text stock in Mohawk Superfine Eggshell Ultra White and Popset Poppy. 

Other print winners included Boss Print, RNG Creative Impressions, Push London and Absolute Group. Design winners were StudioSmall, City Edition Studio, B.A.M. and Socio Design.

Ian Webb, marketing director, commented, ‘The Review awards aim to bring together key players in the design and print communities, in order to showcase innovative work and share best practise in a collaborative and celebratory environment. We hope that by recognising some of these stand-out projects it will serve as inspiration for the current and upcoming generations of designers and printers alike.

‘We were thrilled to have yet another record-breaking year of entries and entrants who were inspired to “Step Right Up” (our theme this year). We would like to thank all of the designers and print customers that entered this year and congratulate each of them on their achievement and contribution to the industry.’
