Hey IDSAers,
Is that okay? to call you/me IDSAers? I think it sounds alright... anwyay. As a result of my subscription to I.D. (International Design) Magazine, I have just been notified of the following competitions. Please forgive the copy/paste...
Competitions
Design 21 Challenges
Deadline: April 10, 2008
Design 21, the Social Design Network, has recently upped the ante for socially-conscious designers by initiating a new feature on its website: "Challenges" allows outside organizations to create their own design competitions, the first being a call for new eco-bag concepts for the city of Kobe, Japan. Winner will receive $2,500 + 10 bags of their own design. www.design21sdn.com/challenges/12
New York City Department of Transportation and Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum Bike Parking Design Competition
Deadlines: April 30, 2008 (registration deadline for sidewalk rack), June 9, 2008 (Stage 1 submission deadline for in-building parking)
This international design competition for bike parking in New York City seeks to develop attractive, functional, well-designed sidewalk racks and to generate new concepts for bicycle parking inside commercial and residential buildings.
