:output, the organiser of the :output award, has announced the launch of www.open-output.org, a new online portfolio platform for students in design and architecture.

This platform allows students to create their own portfolio websites free of charge and benefit from the power of a large network. With already more than 1000 projects online, students are able to simply log in and create an account.

With an open-output.org, students can:

create a personal portfolio website

upload an unlimited number of projects

include images and videos

include project descriptions and downloads

add a cv and personal skills

edit all parts of the personal portfolio at any time


Visitors to open :output can quickly find the most interesting projects from the top art schools and universities around the world. Every other week, open-output.org features a selected university (feature school show) or ask students from one particular school to make their selection of outstanding projects (student choice show). Visitors can also find the best works from the :output award in the ":output hall of fame". 

All students who open an account before 30 November 2009 have the chance to win one of 15 Pantone formula guides or one of 15 subscriptions to Greenpeace Magazin.
