The agency took home two Silver Lovies, one Bronze Lovie, and three People’s Lovies – last of which is being voted on by the public, showing commitment to creating great user experiences. Shape has won a total of 21 Lovie Awards over the past six years, and it is the second year in a row they bring home six awards, making them one of the most winning agencies in Lovie history.
Shape's Creative Director, Allan Aurelius, states, "We are incredibly proud of our team's hard work and dedication, along with our clients who have collaborated with us to bring these excellent digital products to life. Winning the People's Lovie in all three categories where we were nominated is particularly significant to us because it shows our dedication to creating apps that resonate with our users. We want the user experience to be exceptional to unlock the growth for our customers' businesses.”
