The GAA rebrand has won a top award at the 2009 Irish Design Effectiveness Awards (IDEA).

On Friday 6th November at the Westin Hotel in Dublin, The Brand Union team were joined by the GAA as they scooped top prize in the Branding & Corporate Identity category. This is the second year in a row that The Brand Union Dublin have won this category, last year picking up the prize for the National Lottery rebrand.

Judged by leading figures from industry and commerce, the Irish Design Effectiveness Awards provide a platform from which design solutions are measured for the impact brand has on an organisation with particular focus on its performance in the market.

This local award follows on from the two international awards the GAA project has already received in 2009, Rebrand 100 & Mongrel Vigor.
