Jordan Jelev's victory

Jordan Jelev — the prize-winner of the National Vine and Wine Chamber Contest for Graphic Design of Wine Labels

We have recently written about Jordan Jelev, a new participant of the project, well-known far beyond Bulgaria as the designer of famous Bulgarian wines labels. In the international design circles he is known as Labelmaker, “The Lord of the Labels”. The key peculiarity of his artwork which distinguishes his calligraphy from the majority of pieces by the contemporary designers is the exquisite handmade script, a beautiful specimen of original and highly artistic calligraphy.

We have just got a happy piece of news from Bulgaria saying that Jordan Jelev won the first prize at the National Vine and Wine Chamber Contest for Graphic Design of Wine Labels in Sophia, Bulgaria.

Moreover, the first thing the honored jury emphasized was the originality and warmth of the style based on handwritten fonts.
