The four finalists in Style Wars 2001.
Good things come in mediocre packages.
That's what I now know from looking at dozens of Style Wars 2001 entries. Only a few designers went all out with mounted photos and fabric samples or some sort of creative display system. Which leads us to believe that the amateur designers must have spent so much time making their creations that there wasn't much left for packaging. And besides, minus the superficial trappings, great design stood out even more. Selecting four finalists was, as always, pretty tough.
