CALL FOR APPLICATIONS: This is the 6th annual SLANT Landscape Design Competition and you are invited to design a "virtual space" which will have water as its central theme. The theme is open to your interpretation, so how you choose to design with water, and how much or how little water you chose to include is entirely up to you. You can place your imagined/virtual plot anywhere in the world and in so doing you are always designing in a geographical, topographical, climatic and cultural environment of your own choosing. You are also not limited in any way by budget, however designs must be "reasonably practical", and should not be harmful to the environment.
In design, as in life in general, water has so many uses, and as such it has come to represent different things to different people. Water of course means life to us all, but on top of this it is has also come to be used in recreation, in science, in engineering, in religion, in cultural events, and for some it has become a vital political issue.
Entry fees start at 40 Euro per entry for individual entries.
Reduced fees are available until 3rd April 2015 at noon, GMT.
Students and recent graduates may apply for a 20% discount of their fee subject to proof of status.
