Calls remain open for the fourth "RecyclingDesignprize" competition, a competition that invites all creatives and designers with professional or semi-professional education to submit their works and concepts. Just as for the first, second and third RecyclingDesignprize 2007, 2008 and 2009, design objects made of “garbage” and/or industrial waste should be submitted. The objects should be made for daily use or for décor and should be easy to produce in “smaller” or “bigger” series in the frame of an institution of employment promotion. Materials that are marked with the “green point” (which is a special german collection system for the packing material of consumer goods) should only be submitted.
The aim of the designprize
Via the use of “littered things” (from industry, handicraft), garbage, “residual material”, useless things become useable. The developed products will be displayed for sale in institutions of employment promotion and generating so a social usability. The production of “clever”, “beautiful” and “useful” objects will be awarded prizes especially those that are conducive to the environment.
Valuation criteria
Valuation criteria for projects of recycling design: quality of design, practical value, producability (also with physically or psychologically handicapped people, in youth workshops or initiatives of employment), environmental safety, innovation and potential for the future.
