Her design for the annual uses geolocation and weather data gathered from all of the 196 countries of the world and applies this code to generate a unique pattern for each of them. The cover of the book captures these visions and echoes the global nature of the awards.

Design studios, advertising agencies, branding consultancies, film production and photographic agencies, digital media pioneers, and other creative firms are all rewarded for showing outstanding creativity, originality, technical excellence and innovation in design and advertising.
