The Chip Shop Awards



The Chip Shop Awards originated 15 years ago and has become an alternative award system for designers. The categories are not the norm and allow designers, whether they be from companies or students, to enter work that would probably have no chance of winning a D&AD for example. Categories range from Best Consumer Campaign Ad or Campaign to Reject of the Year.

The current identity for the awards was in fact a previous winner in 2006 in the Best Use of Plagiarism category.

Although entry for this year competition has closed there are still previous entries to look at and soon this years nominations will be on the site.

1) Grand Prix
2) Chairman's Award
