Muuto Design Contest 001
Registration/Submission Deadline: Saturday, October 12, 2024
"The contest focuses on small home furniture and accessories that blend form and function. We seek designs that offer new perspectives on accessories for hallways, living rooms, dining rooms, offices, and more. These are not items to be hidden away but cherished as beautiful objects in themselves. Your proposal should complement the Muuto universe and our current assortment, creating functional yet sculptural pieces that enhance any room."
Call for Proposals - International Garden Festival 2025: BORDERS
Registration/Submission Deadline: Monday, November 4, 2024
"For its 26th edition, the International Garden Festival invites designers from all horizons to rethink the notion of borders in today's post-colonial context, and to transpose their reflections into a garden-environment that blurs disciplines, renegotiates preconceived ideas about the garden/landscape, and actively dialogues with the visitor."
International Architectural Competition FOR RECONSTRUCTION, IMPROVEMENT AND DEVELOPMENT urban environment in the area around the Market Square of Stara Zagora, Bulgaria
Registration/Submission Deadline: Friday, November 15, 2024
"The competition area is enclosed between the two city parks and is in the heart of the city. An important characteristic of the area is the close proximity to the main pedestrian street of the city. The general framework of the tasks set is flexible and deliberately does not set specific functional, spatial and development requirements beyond those required by the Masterplan, in order to enable participants to present and justify proposed solutions within the framework of the stated aims and objectives."
