    Scroll down to the category links.

    Some of these are really amazing. Some aren't.
    Before you flat designers start complaining about the number of 'sweeps' in the designs, consider how difficult it is to create those compound curves in 3 dimensions.

    WOW! That is really some great stuff Print.

    That is a specialized part of Graphic Art that falls under manufacturing. It's kind of like package design. They have some really amazing stuff there.

      Did you edit your post here Benjo? Musta missed it.

      The graphic art that is Exterior and Wayfinding signage falls under Environmental Design. Building the sign is called Fabrication. Not at all like package design, well, except for the fact the object is 3 dimensional. A little more structural engineering involved. Not to mention size and materials...

      The actual magazine has many, many more pictures. They only show the winners on the website. This month's mag has the 'ugly signage' contest in it. What a riot those are!

        That's what I meant. You don't print on paper always just as package design and at time you need 3D programs to construct your layout. I was in Time square on Saturday and they have this big Cadillac Grill on a billboard the Cadillac rapes around whole front of the building. I was just like wow man I would love to do one of those. Easily run the fabrication/manufacturing charges up to $60,000 on one of those things.
