Dezeen wins Commercial Campaign of the Year at the British Media Awards 2015

Dezeen has won Commercial Campaign of the Year at the British Media Awards 2015 for our Dezeen and MINI Frontiers collaboration, beating publishers including News UK, Trinity Mirror and Time Inc.

Dezeen's founder Marcus Fairs, head of studio Ben Hobson and head of video Oliver Manzi collected the gold award for first place in the category at the awards ceremony in London last night.

The awards, where Dezeen was also shortlisted in the Website of the Year category, were hosted by newsreader Natasha Kaplinsky.

"Dezeen managed to execute a huge campaign," the British Media Awards judges said. "The campaign's editorial video was picked up by other media outlets earning even greater PR."
