Locomotive wins other recognitions for Design Canada at Numix, which rewards the best digital projects in the industry. This is a 12th win for this pro bono project and another great reward for the entire team.
The web platform is an extension of the documentary Design Canada, which recounts the decisive role design played in creating Canada's visual identity in the early 1960s.
Greg Durell, a partner at Hulse & Durell, is behind this film launched in the summer of 2018. Very quickly, the documentary has aroused a craze as much with aficionado of the genre as with designers around the world. In addition to being the recipient of numerous awards, Design Canada has been named #1 on iTunes documentary charts.
Design Canada had already won a dozen design and digital communications awards:
Numix Prize / Cultural Promotion-Numix
