    It’s fair to say these awards reflect the spread, heights and depths we as creatives thrive in. There’s a new socio-cultural design edge post pandemic that is speaking out here. I was walking across London yesterday from Saatchi gallery to Oxford Street and the buzz on our capital streets is back. Bring it all on.

      Absolutely! It’s fair to say these awards reflect the spread, heights, and depths we, as creatives, thrive in. There’s a new socio-cultural design edge post-pandemic that is speaking out here. I was walking across London yesterday from the Saatchi Gallery to Oxford Street, and the buzz on our capital streets is back. Bring it all on. Greetings from a fellow creative! ????✨
