It’s a new year, and that means a fresh approach to the Top 9 at 99. This time around we’re focusing on one category of design each month, nominating amazing work from the past six months. That means designers have more opportunities to shine in their field of expertise, and you get to view and vote for the best of the best!

First up: logo and identity design.

We counted your votes and are excited to announce that the ScandiMedia logo, designed by J_Ivan, took home the prize this month. IT services aren’t traditionally cool and colorful, but that’s why this winning branding for ScandiMedia stands out. Technology for business can be fun!

Let’s take another look at the January Top 9 at 99 winner:
