TDC70 Best of Discipline and Judges' Choice recipients will be announced on Tuesday, 14 May during The One Club for Creativity's Creative Week 2024 in New York. 

That's also the date for a TDC70 Exhibition of winning work, from 19:00-21:00 at Location, 450 West 31st St, 7th floor.

According to the awards, all TDC70 winners receive a Certificate of Typographic Excellence and a digital seal certifying that their work is among the world's best of the year. Winning work will also be featured in the TDC Annual, The World's Best Typography® and showcased in eight exhibitions that travel to museums, schools and design organisations around the world.

TDC70 winners are also part of The One Club's Global Creative Rankings, earning points alongside winners in:

  • The One Show
  • ADC Annual Awards
  • ONE Asia, and
  • Art Directors Club of Europe competitions.

This is to chart the world's leading independent creatives, ad agencies, production companies and brands. Across its three juries, TDC70 had native experts for writing systems spanning:

  • Arabic
  • Cyrillic
  • Indic
  • CJK
  • Thai, and
  • select African scripts.

The addition of these and other judges in recent years is a reflection of TDC's commitment to having a greater number of the most appropriate experts judging designs for which they have a deep knowledge.

The 2024 TDC70 competition committee was co-chaired by Eric Q. Liu, typographer, editor, podcaster and writer with The Type in Tokyo, and Trisha Tan, VP experience design lead, Chase Travel, JP Morgan Chase, New York.

Branding for the 2024 competition was created by Wolff Olins, with fonts generously donated by Neubau, based in Berlin.

A showcase of all TDC70 certificate winners can be viewed here.
