Food, travel, sports, leisure, style, design and décor — all delightful topics that fall within the lifestyle feature designation. As shown by this year’s finalists in Best Service Feature: Lifestyle, digital publishers are finding new ways to transport us directly into these various worlds, allowing us to enter spaces that help to influence our own lifestyle choices whenever we like.
This year’s jury has nominated five exceptional digital service features that focus on lifestyle, with an emphasis on excellence in storytelling and packaging of content.
Some of this year’s nominees help us find new ways to navigate our cities, such as a robust and ever-expanding list of Toronto’s hidden gems and a Top 25 Best New Restaurants Guide, while others provide answers to questions on current wedding trends, how to make awe-inspiring cakes or what the best books of the year are.
