'We're all top of our game... There are egos in the room' - the Irish designer on the jury to pick the new euro banknotes
"New designs come into circulation in 2029 and John Paul Dowling of NCAD is Ireland's representative on the selection panel"
"'It was a great honour to be asked. I am delighted to think that in years to come, when my kids are holding euro banknotes, I can say: 'I was involved in that'. They won't believe me."
"John Paul Dowling, a graphic designer from Limerick, is talking about being a member of the jury that is helping to design new banknotes that the European Central Bank (ECB) will put into circulation by 2029."
John Paul Dowling, a graphic designer from Limerick and NCAD representative, served on the selection panel for new euro banknote designs. The panel will select designs that the European Central Bank will put into circulation in 2029. Dowling described the invitation to join the jury as a great honour. He said he is delighted by the prospect of telling his children in future that he helped create the banknotes they will use. He also predicted that his children will be skeptical about his involvement. The process includes national representatives evaluating proposed designs.
