The Newborn monument is a typographical sculpture found in Pristina. It is located in front of the Palace of Youth and Sports and was unveiled on February 17, 2008, the same day that Kosovo declared independence.
Newborn was created by Fisnik Ismaili and the creative agency Ogilvy Kosova with their participants (EH, LB, ES, BB, MS). It took 10 days to create Newborn, from idea to final product. At the unveiling, the first to put their signatures were President Fatmir Sejdiu and Prime Minister Hashim Thaci, accompanied by 150,000 people who participated in the demonstrations held on February 17, 2008.
The project has so far been awarded a number of prestigious design awards around the world.
