Inspire Oakland 2011: Top 4 Designs!
1st Place (Grand Prize Winner): Nik Eakle
“My cartoonish design captures the unique local Oakland community… Oakland is beyond amazing, have a look around and be inspired!”
2nd Place: David Flores
“I had an imagination of the whole design; Oakland is a urban place and has one of the best weather ever in my opinion and I used the greens because Oakland colors are green.”
3rd Place: Jason Suryoutomo
“Oakland has made serious efforts to change its image for the better. In particular, its art community has become much more visible, as evidenced by the murals now gracing downtown buildings. I see these events as signs that Oakland is trying to plant the seeds of a new beginning for itself. Oakland can be a beacon that people can look to.”
4th Place: Travis Henson
“What inspires me about Oakland? Art, music, community, friends and great food, these things inspire me. From the 1st Fridays Oakland Art Walk in and around Downtown and Uptown Oakland to the burrito trucks parked around Fruitvale District, Oakland inspires me. That is why I designed my billboard, to relay this slogan – “INSPIRE A NEW OAKLAND” – what I see and experience every day biking and walking down the street as an Oaklander, transported on a billboard.”
