The theme for the Seoul International Design Competition is 'design for all – future technology and daily living'. The ‘design for all’ concept has been chosen with the objective of inspiring designers to increasingly pursue design production that can be shared by all, removing emotional and physical barriers by becoming an universal communicative social solution. There are three categories in which designers may submit entries – 'product for all', 'communication for all' and 'space for all'.
Submissions will be assessed by a panel of international professional designers (panelists TBA). All projects submitted should be original and not be currently in serial production.
The designs entries may not be marked with any form of identification (name, logo…) entries will be disqualified under these terms.
The jury will award designs and concepts which are innovative in terms of their formal/technological aspects as well as their social relevance. Please don't send in vague concepts, but go a step further.
There are several lucrative prizes on offer in this competition:
– Golden haechi prize: One winner to receive USD $10,000.
– Silver haechi prize: Three winners to receive USD $2,000 each.
– Bronze haechi prize: Five winners to receive USD $1,000 each.
– Iron haechi prize: A maximum of ten winners to recieve USD $500 each.
