Yunomi wins European Mixx Award
14 Jun 2011
Yunomi, the largest online community for and by women in the Benelux, has been awarded the European Mixx Award in the category ‘Lead Generation’! No small feat–and we are fittingly proud of this achievement.
A few months ago, the Belgian part of the Yunomi team moved shop from Brussels to Antwerp to join the happy crowd here at Design is Dead. A lucky decision, because after the Belgian Silver Mixx Award of last year, last week this online community for and by women did one better: it took home the European Mixx Award in the category Lead Generation! This joint project of Emakina.nl and Design is Dead for Unilever is a huge success, as these numbers prove: with 315.000 members, 1 million visitors per month, and more than 3.6 million comments posted over the past two years, Yunomi can safely be said to be one of the most important online communities around. Gooooooooooo team!

OFFF to Barcelona!
9 Jun 2011
On Wednesday, 8 June 2011, Design is Dead proudly launched what will definitely be one of the most amazing websites of 2011—the website of OFFF 2011! Our most important tools? Careful planning and organizing, intelligent and creative design, intense programming, and extensive tweaking and tuning, with a delightful result!
When we were asked last year if we were interested in concepting, designing, and creating the website for the OFFF festival 2011, to be held in Barcelona, we didn’t have to think about it very long. ‘Hell yeah!’, was the phrase, if memory serves. So we put three young, creative talents on the project and waited for the magic to happen, with a little (well, a lot of) help from their eager Design is Dead colleagues. That it did is easy to see: one look at their fantastic funky web creation proves that great and original minds were at work. But we couldn’t have pulled it ‘offf’ without the support of our partners in creation, Emakina FR & Emakina BE. Watch out Barcelona—Design is Dead is coming!
