The Artists´ Society of Hyvinkää proudly presents XII CONSCIOUSNESS -Event of Contemporary Art with the theme  Tree´s Consciousness 2011.

We’re happy to inform our friends that two of our pieces done in co-operatin with our in-house-artist Eeva Kaisa Berry were juryed in. We’ll be having some fun with a few cubic meters of firewood, a forest, and gold .

Other artists taking part are (among others) Outi Heiskanen, Anu Tuominen, Vappu Rossi, Santeri Tuori, Jan-Erik Andersson and Radoslaw Gryta.

ProCom, the Finnish Association for Professional Communicators has nominated the best customer, interest group and in-house magazines.

Teemu Ollikainen and Timo Berry, BOTH designers and partners, were the visual jurors of the competition now the third year in a row. The journalistic jurors were Jarno Forssell and Riitta Korhonen.

This year we saw more hired help in the magazine design process, and the level of entries had risen.

The best in-house magazine was Helsingin Henki by the City of Helsinki, which had developed from the previous year. Its fresh, multi-faceted and close to the reader. The challenging tabloid format is well used.

The best customer and interest group magazine was Finpro inFront, a cheery, active and rich publication with lots of well-thaught-out detailing.

Other awards went to the Almanakka published by Alma Media, the Wattsup by Wärtsilä, Profile publisehd by the Aalto University Executive Educatio and Telma published by this-we-will-not-translate-into-English Työsuojelurahasto ja Työturvallisuuskeskus.

More on the competition here.

BOTH congratulates the winners and thanks the fellow jurors for a pleasant job!

We got to re-do the Avotakka magazine logo. The old weak logo is now fine-tuned without losing its old character. We so love this type stuff!
