Society of Publication Designers

For over a quarter of a century, the Society of Publication Designers (SPD) has been a driving force for quality and innovation in publication design. It is the one venue in which the best of the best continually strive.

SPD encourages artistic excellence by judging annually the work of thousands of design professionals in the United States and abroad. The activities of SPD promote the art director's role as visual journalist and partner in the editorial process -- the partner responsible for telescoping and shaping information, the one who gives tone to an editorial voice.

Since drafting its charter in 1965, SPD remains the only organization specifically addressing the concerns of trade, corporate, institutional, newspaper and consumer editorial art directors. Guidance is provided by a board of directors composed of top editorial art directors and allied professionals. The Society provides programs which explore the collaborative work of the best illustrators, photographers and typographers, and constantly examines the real impact of evolving technologies.
