Yoav Perry
Visual Communication
Emerging Designer Award
"Transforming an idea into form has always fascinated me. This challenge, which lies at the core of the design action, describes an act of translation from the abstract to the concrete existing — constantly activates me. Out of a passion for translating ideas I find myself in a constant search for the exact wording — but also accept that there is more than just one. This understanding offers me freedom and relief in work processes and full willingness to make mistakes. Along with an active search, the coincidences and errors which naturally happen on the way, offer a new and unexpected potential."
