About Competition
The Trieste Contemporanea Committee announces the 14th edition of the International Design Contest Trieste Contemporanea with the aim of showcasing the most original design offerings from the countries of Central Eastern Europe.
Set up in 1995, the Trieste Contemporanea International Design Contest is advertised every two years by the Trieste Contemporanea Committee.
The 2021 edition theme is 'Basics'.
This edition aims to reflect on individual contribution we can make to sustainable development. Basic issues of concern are how to effectively change ourselves and increase our responsibility to others and to our planet.
Contestants are asked to conceive an original and innovative item of contemporary design taking into account sustainable development objectives.
While reflecting on new meanings and purposes, which also objects and tools take when addressing sustainable goals or facing contingencies (e.g. as it occurs during an unprecedented outbreak), propose and design a basic object fit for serviceable use you consider iconic of the process of change underway.
Once the participation terms are up, an international jury selects among the most interesting works the winners and a number of projects shown in a conclusive exhibition in Trieste, Italy.
