Calling all design students: Kit Design Award 2009
If you’re a Design Student, then this is the competition for you!
Following the success of the Kit Design Award 2008, we are again putting the call out to Australian (and international) design students for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to design product packaging for our upcoming Kit Design Award 2009 limited edition product range.
We’re looking for a unique, fresh take on our kit cosmetics product packaging and we’re throwing the brief out to you. Create your own interpretation of this year’s theme ‘in my wildest dreams’ and you could see your very own design, in original or modified form, on limited edition Kit Cosmetics product in kit stores nationally this August.
This year, we’ve partnered with frankie Magazine as we love their focus on design and support of emerging designers and thought they would be the perfect match. frankie Magazine will be involved in the judging of the Kit Design Award 2009 and they will also be offering a rocking work experience opportunity to jump start the winner’s design career. Thank you frankie!
Up for grabs: The winner will receive $1000 prize money, a $1000 kit gift voucher to shop to their heart’s content plus the kudos of having their design across the entire limited edition Kit Design Award 2009 product range. And to further jump start their career, this year the winner will also have their work featured larger than life in an in-mag poster in frankie Magazine. In addition, the winner will be invited to participate in one week of work experience at frankie Magazine including specifically designed projects and the opportunity for more of their work to feature in the magazine. Two runners-up will receive $500 prize money, a $500 kit gift voucher plus the kudos of having their very own design on a product in the limited edition Kit Design Award 2009 product range.
Judging will be based on the following criteria: creative and innovative design, in-line with kit branding and graphic language, fulfillment of design brief and commercial appeal.
But be quick…entries close 5:00pm EST on Friday 20 March, 2009.
