terms and conditions

The theme of this year's competition is „Sometime in the Future.” The theme can be taken literally or figuratively. The organizers expect an answer to the question, what will the world look like someday? Ideas for new spaces, new functions, new relationships, imagining changes in what we already know or sharing the idea of what does not yet exist are welcome.

The competition is aimed at male and female students of elementary (grades 6 to 8) and secondary schools. Participants can enter individually or in teams of up to five people. Only one work can be submitted.

The competition work must be submitted in electronic form, on a board corresponding to the dimensions of 50 × 70 cm, but its individual elements can be made in any technique.

Additional materials can be attached separately to the work, e.g. additional photos of mock-ups, visualizations, documentation of the creative process, photos presenting the author(s) of the work. They are not subject to evaluation and do not affect the scoring of the work, but are welcome promotional material.
