The Official Los Angeles Condom
In 2012, POP THE PIXEL earned distinction by securing the Grand Prize in the One Condoms-sponsored Official Los Angeles Condom design competition. The contest, titled “L.A.’s Next Sex Symbol,” drew more than 500 submissions and garnered 185,000 votes from the public. The victorious design prominently displayed the slogan “Suit Up.”
A judging panel composed of media figures and LGBTQ+ advocates—including Perez Hilton, Julia Allison, Scott McPherson, Oriol Gutierrez, David Stern, Pepe Torres, as well as a community advisory group—narrowed the entries to a top 50 shortlist. Subsequently, public voting decided both the finalists and the ultimate winner.
On July 2, 2012, Adam Lyons appeared on Southern California Public Radio’s Patt Morrison program to discuss the campaign’s creative strategy and its societal influence.
Summer Slogan Contest
During July 2012, POP THE PIXEL was recognized for winning the "Summer Slogan Contest," organized by Impulse Group, with their slogan "Show Some Love."
Publications
Artwork produced by POP THE PIXEL has been showcased in various publications including Odyssey, Frontiers LA, Instinct (magazine), Metrosource, Adalente, Gloss, Noize, and Rage. Additionally, founder Adam Lyons was featured in an interview with VoyageLA.
