Core77 Announces "Sustainable Refrainables" A Poster Design Competition

Core77 is proud to announce “Sustainable Refrainables,” our second Design Arena Community Challenge in association with the San Francisco chapter of AIGA to support their fourth biennial Compostmodern conference.

“Sustainable Refrainables” is a poster design competition celebrating words of persuasion. We’re inviting designers to share those mantric phrases they find most powerful in communicating positive action. Maybe the phrase is something as simple as “I never use the word ‘sustainability.'” or “The first rule is listen. The second rule is to ignore what you heard and do it better.” or “There is no silver bullet, just silver buckshot.”

Whatever your magic phrase, design it up in poster form, upload it to the competition site, and comment on your favorites. We’re looking for your most graphic, persuasive quotables!

There’s five prizes to be won:
Jury Prize Winner
$500 and a copy of Adobe’s Creative Suite 5 Master Collection.

Popular Vote Winner
$500 and a copy of Adobe’s Creative Suite 5 Master Collection.

Three Runners Up
Each receive a copy of Adobe’s Creative Suite 5 Master Collection.

All five entries will be printed and displayed in transit shelters for one week prior and during San Francisco Design Week, June 13-19, 2011. Each winner will also receive a printed copy of their poster design.
