We had so much fun at our 2018 Core77 Design Awards celebration at Kickstarter in New York last month that we decided to do it all over again in San Francisco! This time the party was generously sponsored by NewDealDesign and took place on their breathtaking office roof deck on Thursday, June 28th on a beautiful, clear evening in the Bay Area. The party was attended by some of this year’s winners, jury team members, and other Core77 fans, which made for a night hard to forget!
Here’s a look into what went down:
The bar was situated in front of this beautiful mural in the middle of the NewDealDesign offices.
There were tasty snacks on hand including local cheeses and produce
A big hit at the party was our Core77 craft table, which included screenprinting…
…and buttonmaking!
Attendees got to take home their own handmade tote bags.
The night of the party included picturesque San Francisco weather
Our celebration included mainstays like the silver 77s….
…as well as some new twists that are still, well, totally in the tradition of Core77. The outdoor deck featured some very smooth stylings courtesy of Core77’s original mascot, Diablo Diseño.
Core77 parties are the best place for networking, as perfectly demonstrated by this handshake photo!
NewDeal’s office is decked out with fun games like cornhole and ping pong, which were popular activities at the party
Core77 co-founder Eric Ludlum and Senior Producer Allison Fonder took a moment to congratulate this year’s award winners and thank the 2018 jury team members, awards sponsors and party sponsors.

Core77 also took a moment to honor San Francisco-based Astro Studios and Mira Prism for their 2018 Covestro Materials Prize in this year's design awards. Seen here are Jeffrey Kozody and Brian Tracy (Covestro) alongside Oliver Henderson and Sean Missal (Astro Studios) as well as Eric Ludlum and Allison Fonder (Core77)
Our generous hosts at NewDealDesign had a photo op featuring the Play Impossible Gameball, a project designed by them that won a 2018 Core77 Design Awards Interaction Award!
Thanks for another year of partying hard, Core77-ers, and congratulations once again to all of this year’s winners!
