Grating Competition 2018

BRIEF

Grating competition wants to explore new ways of employing prefab iron modules produced for fences and gates. EMMEGI Spa is looking for a creative project that would open new scenarios on the use of its products.

The participation in the competition is free.

Each design has to employ one or more than one products available in the EMMEGI Spa catalogue that can be downloaded here.

We decided to not fix the scale of the design: any project from product design to building scale is eligible for consideration. For this reasons, there is no functional restriction, but the jury will evaluate the usability according to the project description.

The project should be adaptable to any context: dimension and formal solutions are up to the participant but should meet feasibility requirements. You can find further technical information in the catalogue.

SCHEDULE

Registration and Submission ends June 30, 2018.

AWARDS

1st place 1000€ + presentation of the project to the head office of the company + visibility on the web page

2nd place 500€ + presentation of the project to the head office of the company + visibility on the web page

Two honourable mentions + visibility on the web page.

In case the winner will not be able to assist to the presentation, a skype connection will be arranged.
