Day 1 of HOW International Design Competition judging: Amy Hawk, Terry Marks and Justin Ahrens have a lot of work in front of them: evaluating nearly 3,500 entries. The HOW staff has spread all the projects out on tables, stacked in layers sandwiched between sheets of paper. The judges will work their way through the categories today and tomorrow, and they'll choose the Best of Show on Monday. At first glance, the quality of the entries is pretty strong (Megan suggested that clients are slowly becoming more design-savvy). We'll report in periodically throughout the judging process (but you'll have to wait until HOW's March/April design annual to see the winners!).
