The group says the Awards are the perfect opportunity to:

- demonstrate talents and skills to existing and potential clients, rivals and peers

- be seen as an award winning company doing award winning work.

- have work showcased alongside Scotland’s leading designers and architects.

- gain great PR opportunities.

- highlight the importance of graphic and architectural design.

The judges will be looking for work that is "innovative" and displays a "new approach to design and a concept that stands out from the crowd".

The deadline for entries is 15 February at 17:00.
