Crystal Visions – Swarovski

C A L L – F O R – E N T R I E S
designboom and SWAROVSKI international design competition.
participation is open to applicants from every country in the world, to professionals, students, and design-enthusiasts.
free registration required.

01 – the subject of the international competition is Crystal Vision

you should explore the properties of this unique material and challenge people’s perception of how crystal can be used in the near future.
come up with new products and ideas to fill the new SWAROVSKI concept store (see pictures below ):
· what role could crystal play in an urban lifestyle and make you feel better?
· how feminine and sensual can crystal pieces be and make you feel more beautiful?

we are looking for innovative product concepts that might be based on pure crystal or fuse crystal with new materials or functions.

please note: the products should be ‘packageable’ that means they should be able to be sold over the counter
– so do not think about crystal furniture, a crystal city or a crystal car…

– first prize Euro 4000
