(Un)limited Design Contest September 8
Submit your own designs, or modify someone else’s…
This may be a first of it’s kind, a truly open design competition?
(Un)limited Design Contest invites anybody — designers, makers, amateurs to submit their own designs or because it is an Open Design Competition, you can submit a new product design, an adaptation of an existing product, or an alteration of another entry. The best designs will be exhibited at the International Dutch Design Week . If you win, your design will be made available at 0900-Design’s shop and website, and you’ll get professional help with marketing your product. The contest ends on the 12th of October.
Unique about the (Un)limited Design Contest is that all designs are open for anybody to be used, re-interpreted and redesigned. These derivative designs are also entitled to take part in the contest — even more: copying and improving designs is strongly encouraged. It’s all about sharing creativity and expertise. All in the spirit of open design ,each entry’s instructions and blueprints will be made available on the contest website under a creative commons license, Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike.
Just visit one of the FabLabs, between 13 August and 12 October and enter the (Un)limited Design Contest 2009. These open high-tech workshops have computers and special computer-controlled prototyping machines you can use to laser cut, cnc-mill and 3D-print nearly any object you can imagine.
(Un)limited Design Contest 2009 is a production of Waag Society and Premsela, Dutch Platform for Design and Fashion in cooperation with the Dutch FabLabs and Creative Commons Nederland.
