What's the creative challenge you're expected to tackle? In short: to design a socially conscious solution enabling people over the age of 70 to lead active and independent lives at home or in public spaces, be it indoors or outdoors.
If you feel at home in graphic, fashion, spatial, industrial, product, service or other design disciplines, if you're interested in socially conscious solutions and intergenerational collaboration, if you enjoy a cross-cultural creative atmosphere and aren't afraid of competition from around the world, this open call is just the thing for you!
We'll select eight projects that their authors will get to develop, with our assistance, into tangible prototypes at the international workshop to be held in Ljubljana. The selected projects will be put into the running to receive cash prizes, and will also be reimbursed for travel and accommodation expenses incurred and the material costs of prototype production, while also receiving mentorship assistance and technical support in developing their solutions, business plans and international promotion.
Working and retired designers, architects, artists, engineers, makers, students and businesses (we accept both individual and group applications).
Product design, industrial design, architecture, graphic design, fashion design, spatial design, the Internet of things, service design in combination with product and graphic design, robotics etc.
Inclusion, intergenerational collaboration, design for all, independence, active aging, etc.
