“Know Your Lines” receives two design honors

"Know Your Lines" receives two design honors

"Know Your Lines," our issue of Making Policy Public breaking down the political redistricting process was called out as a notable project in this year's Core77 Design Awards. Two separate juries, one in the Visual Communication category and one in the Social Impact category, praised the project, which was produced in collaboration with design studio We Have Photoshop and the Brennan Center for Justice.

The Social Impact jury called the project "A beautiful example of how social activism can be brought home to ordinary citizens on issues that affect them directly." And the Visual Communication jury noted "The publication renders important yet otherwise boring and inaccessible information regarding civil life accessible... The overall tone is informal and conversational, which seems to be a desirable quality not only for such a publication as this, but also for any discourse on policy and politics."

Check out the project here and the award announcements here and here.
