The results of Splash’s Sponge Project are out! We had the pleasure of having an award presentation for our winners – David Adi Chandra (1st prize: A Blast in Wonderland), Sandra Yin (2nd prize: Having a Blast!) and Lumlum Lee (3rd prize: Off the Crank!) Our Art Director Norman gave away the very attractive prizes (including a shiny iPad 2!)

David: “I love your works and office! I know I’m supposed to say 'thank you' but I can't wait to express how much I adore Splash as a design company! Thanks a lot, Splash! I look forward to finishing my degree course and intern here, so see you guys soon. Woohoo!”

Sandra: “Design's a heck of a journey, but in the end it's all worth it because you are pursuing what you love. That's the special thing about this industry. Take care, stay united, and don't be afraid to take on a few bears for that bucket of honey.”

One day, Splash Art Director Norman Lai couldn’t get a catchy tune out of his head. Yes, the same way Kylie Minogue felt when she sang, “La la la… I just can’t get you out of my head…” It did feel like eternity, so Norman decided to immortalise the moment with a cassette-head duo. “This poster is for everyone who’s ever gone through that torture,” he explains.

We are delighted that distinguished design community Design and Design concurs, and awarded Norman’s work as Graphic Design of the Day on 2 September 2011. Now, we can’t wait for Norman’s design to be featured in DaD’s Book of the Year!
