STEP INSIDE
As Tiffany Meyers observes in her overview of the 100 winners, one can’t peg 2009 as the year of any specific color or typographic convention. But the winning projects are reflective of today’s increasingly diverse design discipline. In fact, one has to wonder if there is any longer such a thing as a design discipline—in light of today’s fast-changing and even amorphous practice, the word discipline seems a little out of place.

STEP Design 100 Annual 2006: Posters (cont'd)

55. IAMALWAYSHUNGRY
During the election year, the firm iamalwayshungry was invited by One Show of New York to create a poster for an exhibit they were doing —a poster designed in the form of political propaganda. Nessim Higson and John Finnell teamed up to showcase in ink on paper a common sentiment—one they felt certain was shared by many in the United States today—about the political climate in which we all live and the great burden of consequences we all face as a result.

“We wanted to say something powerful about the current political state,” says Finnell, and the response to their poster has been wholly appreciative. “We liked the way John Heart. eld used design and art as a voice, used it as a vehicle to grasp people and get a message across,” he says. The posters can be downloaded from the internet for free, taken to any cheap print house for copies, and hopefully, “plastered all over every city in the United States,” say Finnell and Higson.

“We both have strong views of how our government has been two-sided and hypocritical,” says Higson. “We couldn’t have done anything more personal, hitting the points we care about most.”
