Arper showroom hosts exhibition of Brexit passport designs during Clerkenwell Design Week
The winning entry plus eight runners up in Dezeen's Brexit passport design competition will be on display at the London showroom of Italian furniture brand Arper this week, as part of Clerkenwell Design Week.
The passports will be displayed in a custom-made installation designed by graphic design studio Alexander Boxill. Each of the nine proposals will be housed in a glass dome.
The unofficial competition was won by Scottish graphic designer Ian Macfarlane.
His winning proposal features a tonal gradient on its cover, with the blue upper half seeping over the maroon lower half.
Judges described the winner as "poetic and powerful". "It can be read as representing a smooth transition, a nostalgic return or an ominous darkening," said jury chair and Dezeen founder Marcus Fairs. "This makes it a worthy winner, since the brief called for a design that would represent all UK citizens."
The second-placed design, by London industrial design studio Special Projects, features an iridescent cover and a shoulder strap, as it is designed to start conversations while travelling abroad.
Tim Gambell and Alfons Hooikaas came third with a proposal for personalised passports featuring covers celebrating the holder's home town and visa pages decorated with images pulled from their social media accounts.
Alongside the exhibition, Arper is hosting the Bloggers Lounge, Clerkenwell Design Week's official venue for digital media, for the second year, and presenting it...
