Each year, 10 leading American designers, educators, journalists, cultural figures, and corporate leaders are recognized for their body of work by the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Awards. In February 2007, Poulin + Morris was nominated for a Communication Design Award for exceptional and exemplary work in graphic design.
More than 800 designers compete for the National Design Awards, which were designated as an official White House Millennium Council program in 2000. Winners will be announced at a gala ceremony that also launches National Design Week this fall.
