Favorites from Ad Age's Global Cover Design Contest

Below are some of my favorite designs from Ad Age's recent Global Issue cover contest for creatives under 30. Ad Age evaluated 220 entries from everywhere - Vietnam, Romania, Canada, Columbia, Switzerland, USA - and the finalists were quite striking. My favorite, also the contest's winner, is "Gears" by Garrett Dafferner and Salina Cole from NYC. In today's global market, all products build off each other. Garrett and Salina's series of gears shows the never-ending cycle in which the "new is birthed from the old."
