- Design Your FORWARD Concept
- Enter to Win by Sept. 12th!
FORWARD means pushing our city towards the ultimate goal of becoming a recognized design center. What is your FORWARD concept? Send us your best take and your work could be distributed to hundreds of attendees. And, just to make it a little more challenging: Don’t use any arrows! The winner will receive 25 professional prints of their submission to use however they choose. The winning entry will also be freely available to attendees of the Poster exhibit.
Several selected designs will be printed and showcased in the official poster exhibit during design week. Plus, all valid submissions will be featured online, viewable to everyone! This contest gives local designers a platform for showcasing their talent—the prize is just an added bonus.
Open voting will take place on this site from September 13th, 2010 to September 19th, 2010. If Phoenix agrees your design’s the best, you win. It’s that simple. The winner will be announced the week of September 20th.
