Competition: five aviation-themed posters by 08 Left to be won

Competition: Dezeen has teamed up with US print studio 08 Left to give readers the chance to win one of five graphic posters influenced by travel, transport and airports from around the world.

Congratulations to the winner! Linda Rygielski and Helen Lane in the UK, Aprar Elawad in the Republic of Ireland, Marcus Ground in Switzerland and Gunnar Sigurdsson in Iceland. They each win a poster of their choice.

Founded in 2014, 08 Left takes its name from an instruction a pilot would be given on an airstrip – a theme that is reflected in the studio's artwork, t-shirts and household accessories, which are based on airportsmilitary bases and air traffic control towers.

The studio has put together over 350 designs, including graphic images of airports in Los Angeles, Barcelona and Rio di Janeiro. Posters can also be customised by selecting different colour palettes through the company's website.

"The prints are for the lovers of flight, travel, and exploration," 08 Left co-founder Ryan Miller told Dezeen. "Airports are bold in their size, their scope and their sheer power. There is nothing like a jet engine, let alone hundreds of them in one spot."

This competition is now closed. Five winners will be selected at random and notified by email.

Dezeen competitions are international and entries are accepted from readers in any country.
