John Burgreen of United States was awarded a silver award for his work on the feature layout in category ART ILLUSTRATION for the entry titled, " Nakamura House." The jury selects winners from thousands of entries from over 85 countries. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT
The concept behind the Davey Awards is simple, smaller efficient teams of creatives often produce world-class media on a tight budget. The David defeated the giant Goliath with a big idea and a little rock - the sort of thing small firms do each year. The annual International Davey Awards honors the achievements of the "Creative Davids" who derive their strength from big ideas, rather than stratospheric budgets.
John Burgreen's layout in Okinawa Living magazine was judged by International Academy of the Visual Arts (IAVA). The web site was judged on a ten point scale and only those with a score between 7 and 8.9 are considered for the Silver category. It was judged as
one of the best developed pieces by the judges.
Based in Okinawa, Japan, John Burgreen is the Art Director for Okinawa Living Magazine. Okinawa Living Magazine is the most widely circulated English magazine in Okinawa Japan and serves eight Marine Corps camps across the island.
