UniSA's
Samstag Program is celebrating an award-winning streak after their
promotional products were applauded in two prestigious national awards.Samstag's annual catalogue (incorporating a DVD and an animated postcard) and its promotional calendar and poster produced to publicise the Samstag Scholarships were announced the winners of two separate categories in the Museums Australia Publication Design Awards on May 18.
This
is the second year in a row that Samstag has won the MAPDA awards. The
distinctive calendar also received a Silver Award in the recent National
Print Awards. David Zhu, the UniSA graduate who designed the products, says
