HPI Wins Four Awards in Print Competition

HPI won four awards in the annual New England Regional Awards of Excellence Competition presented by the Printing Industries of New England (PINE).

PINE selected HPI for a second-place “Award of Recognition” and three thirdplace “Awards of Merit.” The “Award of Recognition” was earned for the “Annual Fund Anniversary Card” for Bennington College in Bennington, VT. The graphic designer was Carol Jessop, the photographer was Sue Rees, and the production manager was Sue Huggins.

The three “Awards of Merit” were presented to HPI for the “Summer Session 2009 Catalog” for the Northfi eld Mount Hermon School (NMH), a co-ed independent school in Mount Hermon, MA; the “Clark Chamber Music Program” produced for The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, MA; and the “Sculptural Ceramic Vessels Brochure” produced for sculptor Stephen Procter of Brattleboro.

The Stephen Procter brochure was designed by Laurie Indenbaum of Saxtons River, VT. The photographer was Jeff Baird. The Clark program was designed by David Edge, the graphic design and product-ion manager at The Clark. The NMH catalog was designed by Lisa Worden, the former design and production manager at NMH. The photographers were Ed Judice, Glenn Minshall, John Peruggia, and Eric Poggenpohl.

The competition attracted 200 entries from 34 printing and imaging companies in New England. Awards were announced at the November 2009 gala in Framingham, Massachusetts.

Each entry was judged anonymously on its own merit in a category with similarly printed pieces by a panel of three non-New England printing experts. The judging criteria focused on technical quality and print execution.

PINE is a 120-year-old trade association serving more than 360 printing and graphic communications companies throughout New England.
