AIGA Houston and the Museum of Printing History Presents
50 Books / 50 Covers ** FREE FOR EVERYONE
A juried selection of the best in book cover design 
 
Thursday, August 28, 2008
This time-honored competition aims to identify the 50 best-designed books and book covers that have been designed, produced and used in the previous year, as chosen by distinguished jurors. As such, they become part of the AIGA Design Archives, a searchable visual database of exemplary design, they are exhibited at the AIGA National Design Center in New York and offered as a traveling exhibition for display across the country. The physical artifacts comprise the AIGA Design Archives at the Denver Art Museum.

AIGA's suite of competitions is widely recognized as the most discerning statement on design excellence today, extending a legacy that began more than 90 years ago. By means of the competitions, AIGA creates an authoritative chronicle of outstanding design solutions, each demonstrating the process of designing, the role of the designer and the value of design.
