Last month, we announced a new collaboration with Grado Labs, the beloved family-owned headphone maker from Brooklyn, New York, to bring you a one-of-a-kind contest and giveaway.

When people unwrap their Grado headphones this holiday, 500 of those boxes will include a limited-edition print of a Paper creation. To enter, participants were asked to share their take on one of three prompts in Paper: the future of audio, sounds of their city, and favorite songs.

Over a thousand entries from creators around the world came pouring in. It was tough to choose just one out of the many imaginative entries but, in the end, the decision was unanimous.

Congratulations to Qing Yu from Hangzhou, China for showing us the sounds of his “colorful city” tucked inside a pair of Grado headphones. In addition to getting his artwork featured inside 500 Grado boxes this holiday, Qing will receive a FiftyThree Pencil and a pair of Grado SR225e headphones.

Order a pair of Grado headphones in December to receive this limited edition Paper artwork with your new headphones!
