The 5 senses of Pentawards
You don’t just see design, you touch it, taste it, smell it – YOU FEEL IT!
After years of restrictions, distance and solitude, never have our senses craved stimulation more. We are all indulging in a long-overdue sensorial overload, and design is reflecting that, igniting all of our senses. It feels like a new age in creativity, and it feels good.
The Pentawards celebrates the diverse, tactile, sensorial way in which we experience packaging and creativity.
And winning a Pentaward? Well, that’s the best sensation of all.
