Updated Submission Guidelines Available for the 2010 Stiftung Buchkunst Design Competition
In an effort to improve the overall quality of American Stiftung Buchkunst design competition entries, Marquand Books is modifying the nomination process for all 2010 submissions. Instead of inviting designers to submit their own work as we usually do, this year we are asking design and publishing professionals to submit their choices for the best-designed books published in 2009. We welcome and value your opinions as working professionals in this field to help us seek out the very best that American book design has to offer.
The process is simple: select a book and send us the title, name of the author, and the publisher. Entries can only have been published in the United States in 2009. Additionally, you can include a short statement about why the book should be considered, but please be aware that this will only be noted by the American selection committee, not the final competition jurors. We will review the nominations, contact the publishers for review copies, jury the selection with a select group of design and publishing professionals, and send the final choices on to the competition in Germany.
Complete guidelines are available on the updated Stiftung Buchkunst page on the top right corner of Marquand’s blog.
