BRIEF
Noumena and IN(3D)USTRY From Needs to Solutions present the IV edition of RESHAPE competition, targeted at emerging designers from all over the world.
TWO COMPETITION CATEGORIES
THE SUBMISSION IS OPEN TO ALL FORMS OF ARTISTIC WORK AND ALL TYPES OF TECHNOLOGICAL AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH DEVELOPMENTS APPLIED IN BOTH WEARABLE AND PRODUCT DESIGN.
WEARABLE DESIGN
PRODUCT DESIGN
The wearable technology category challenges designers to propose a new garment solution, relevant to the environment and human health.
We seek a wide variety of proposals, from innovative materials and wearable electronics applications to prosthetics solutions, negotiating with our body’s needs.
We are looking for wearable products that tackle daily problems, such as respiration, contamination, harmful body postures, disabilities, and stress.
The submitted project needs to present a clear prototyping methodology involving digital manufacturing technologies. Interdisciplinary processes, experimental approaches and innovative design production strategies are required to become the new pioneers of this digital age.
The Product design category is addressed to all designers interested in product solution, that promotes well-being. In a wide range of applications, from sports goods to medical devices.
Reshape challenges makers and designers to present a product able to negotiate the forces shaping our environments; monitoring, sensing, and interacting with the physical and digital world.
Proposals must take into consideration the social impact of their production and consumption cycle.
Interdisciplinary processes, experimental approaches and innovative design production strategies are required to become the pioneers of the digital age.
