Ken’s work has afforded him immense global acclaim and as such he and his team have been recognised with many international awards too numerous to list.

Other notable honours include being recognised as an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) in 2013 for distinguished service to the graphic design profession, as well as being bestowed Hall of Fame status with ICOGRADA, The Premiers Design Awards, AGDA and The Design Institute of Australia.

Ken’s passion for design extends beyond that of Cato Brand Partners; in 1991 he established the worlds largest student design conference. Originating in Melbourne it now has substantial presence in China.
