We have summoned up a great panel of judges among artists and designers and collected an interesting selection of meaningful prizes for the designers exhibiting.
The panel of judges included Max Schorr (publisher and founding editor of GOODmagazine), Douglas Riccardi (Art Director), Donald Baechler (contemporary artist), Treehugger and Core77 The clocks were judged based on design, originality and green-ness (use of recycled materials etc).
