CALL FOR ENTRIES


Deadline: 5 December 2008

Create a total packaging concept that works from the production line, to the warehouse, into the retail store, and all the way through to the end consumers. Create a solution that adds real value to companies and that will delight consumers.

Think innovatively: create something that is new & meaningful. Take into account consumer trends & industry constraints. Think of a creation that enhances an environmentally friendly product lifecycle and that improves our ecological footprint.

All students, design schools & non-professional packaging designers resident in a European country are invited to compete.

Either participate in a group or as an individual. Only one entry per candidate/group is accepted.
