(Jersey City, NJ) - Jersey City-based creative services agency, 3rd Edge Communications, Inc., recently garnered four design awards, including a gold medal, in recognition of their design work for two websites, one print communications project, and one corporate identity project.
 
The Art Director's Club of New Jersey (ADCNJ) awarded 3rd Edge with the prestigious Gold Medal Award for its design of a fold-out promotional brochure for Here's Life Inner City, the urban ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ International. Frankie Gonzalez, president of the firm, served as Art Director and Michelle Wang served as the Senior Designer on the project. Additionally, an Award of Excellence was given to the firm for the new logo design of CCM radio station Star 99.1 FM. Their work was selected from over 600 entries for the ADCNJ's 40th Annual Awards Exhibition.
 
3rd Edge also garnered a coveted Gold Level Certificate of Excellence from The American Design Awards for their recent design of a website for The King's College (http://www.tkc.edu/), a progressive, leadership development college located in the Empire State Building in New York City. This extensive project culminated in a site launch earlier this year and received one of the top five scores from over 1,300 international entries. The website was art directed by Frankie Gonzalez and developed by Manny Dilone, the agency's Senior Web Developer.
