· Carmen Montes’s (Art Director at Freepik) thoughts on our winner designs ·

“These designs are like a vibrant mixtape of creativity. Each one has its bold personality, standing out with a burst of originality

and killer design techniques. From retro vibes to acid characters, 3D plushy objects, and hand-drawn sketching – they’re all in the cool designs club. The color palettes are pure eye candy, making you stop and stare.

What’s even cooler? These designs aren’t just pretty faces; they’ve got real-world potential, ready to rock in editorials, branding, or your next favorite merch collection. Hats off to the creators – you guys are nailing the fun and professional game!”
