Juror Notes "I remember seeing this delightful project on a cold winter's evening and smiling widely at all the little kids having a blast as they tumbled around in these imaginary snowflakes. Like The Gates, this project was completely unnecessary, but a lovely addition to otherwise bleak New York City winter nights."
Michael Graves for Target (Brand)
Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum 2003 National Design Awards honoring Target with the Corporate Achievement Award
"This award is given to a corporation or institution that uses design as a strategic tool of its mission and exhibits ingenuity and insight in helping to advance the relationship between design and the quality of life in the United States.)(The 2003 National Design Award for Corporate Achievement will be awarded to Target for its emphasis on good design and aesthetics, which is central to its success as a business and a brand. As a "curator" of good design, the company commissions product lines by some of the most talented designers today – including Michael Graves, Philippe Starck, Isaac Mizrahi and Stephen Sprouse -- to expand the store's product labels at modest prices. From its headquarters in Minneapolis, Target has democratized design and made a major impact on the education of the American public about its daily benefits. A brilliant retailer, the company's design savvy extends to its store design, advertising, branding and graphic image as well, all of which embody the Target "Fast, Fun and Friendly" ethic. Today over 96% of American consumers recognize the red bull's eye as the Target logo without any further explanation."

IDSA Industrial Design Excellence Award 2003 Silver: Packaging Strategy
"The Starck Packaging Strategy, invents new fold-up form that use shrink-wrap. Packaging creates considerable salesmanship for Target's Philippe Starck designs. Philippe Starck's face and commentary of his design are on the packaging. The understated design strategy shows how design can grab the customer's attention in a quiet way. Created a buzz over an "in-and-out" program for Target around Starck-designed products"
