Vancouverite nabs Canadian design prize
Vancouver designer Omer Arbel has captured the Ronald J. Thom Award for Early Design Achievement from the Canada Council for the Arts.
The $10,000 prize, handed out every two years, is given to an emerging designer in Canada who demonstrates creative talent as well as a sensitivity to arts and crafts, the decorative arts and architecture. The prize was established in 1990 by colleagues and friends of Thom, a Canadian architect, as a tribute to his life and work.
Arbel was also co-designer of the 2010 Vancouver Olympic and Paralympic medals.
