SUMMER SCHOOL 2021 – PORTER & BRAWN TOP PICKS!

 

Welcome back to the Make it in Design blog! Today we’re thrilled to share a gorgeous curation of artwork out of Summer School 2021.

Summer School is an annual online creative event where we provide creatives all over the globe with cutting edge design briefs to push their creativity and skill set, and to expand their design portfolio. This year we were honoured once again to partner with trend consultancy Porter & Brawn who also provided us with hot trends for our Summer School participants as well as for our exclusive online members’ club The Make it in Design Live Hub!

Below you can find Porter & Brawn’s top picks from each track of Summer School 2021:

Commenting on their selection, P&B said:

“Once again we’ve been blown away by the enthusiasm for Summer School; we hope like us it gave you much inspiration.  As usual, selecting our favourites hasn’t been an easy task but overall we’ve pulled out the designs which we felt were either perfectly answering the brief, highly commercial or just absolute showstoppers.  Seeing the way each track has been translated and the sheer variety of style produced is brilliant – there have been some really interesting directions explored this year. From the abstract and quirky styles that were produced in Mineral to the super-stylish print designs in Boardwalk and we can’t not mention the wonderful detail and creative skill that has been applied to the two advanced track briefs.  Thanks for taking part and for turning our initial inspiration and vision into the most wonderful collection of new design work; you should all feel very proud of what has been achieved.
