Notable News
5 by 5 Design is recognized for two recent projects.


5 by 5 Design is delighted to share the news that we’ve received two awards of distinction from the 2025 Communicator Awards.
For this year’s contest, The Communicator Awards used the theme ‘Communication is Connection’ and looked for work that demonstrated the power of communication to bridge gaps between people, platforms, and perspectives. Our winning entries were both campaigns that effectively reached diverse audiences through the use of culturally aware language translations and varied delivery methods.
Check out our award-winning work:
- Minnesota Department of Human Services Healthcare Renewal Campaign
- Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry Earned Sick and Safe Time Campaign
We’re excited to be honored for our work on both of these important campaigns for the state of Minnesota. And we’re grateful for all of our clients and partners who continue to collaborate with us and trust our creative process that leads to communications that connect—and get noticed in the world.
