Dwell Contest: Innovate It!
Dwell magazine has just announced the opening of its spring competition – Innovate It! The competition seeks to improve the function and design of everyday objects, and is divided into two parts.
Part I: February 11 – March 31
Simply send in suggestions for everyday objects that you think need a rework. Either they don’t function well, are poorly designed or just downright useless for the task they were designed to perform. Dwell editors will select the items for redesign.
Phase II: April 5 – June 10
Then the competition phase launches where you are invited to submit design proposals for recreating one (or all) of the three most tragically troublesome objects. You may participate in one or both phases of this contest and there is no limit to the number of entries.
Dwell editors will vet the submissions and choose the three best (or worst!) products for redesign. The people who entered the winning submissions will receive credit on the Dwell.com blog and a free ticket to Dwell on Design Los Angeles, June 26-28, 2009.
You don’t need any professional training to enter. To get the details, follow this link.
