Your World, Reimagined: A Global Design Competition Accepting Entries

Professional and student designers have the opportunity to win cash and prizes in four categories. Entries are now being accepted for "Your World, Reimagined: A Global Design Competition," presented by Nemetschek Vectorworks.

"Your World, Reimagined" asks professional and student designers to tackle an old, dilapidated, or run-down locale and redesign it for a new, improved use. Entries for this design competition, sponsored by Vectorworks, can range in focus from adaptive reuse to landscape reclamation or object redesign. Winners will be selected by a panel of judges from around the world.

In addition to an overall award for Best Overall Design Concept, winners will be selected in the following categories: Best Computer Rendering, Best Animation, Best 3D Modeling and Best 2D Plan. The prizes include a Visa gift card for $1,000 or $2,000, along with various software design packages.

Submissions will be accepted until August 16. Entries can range from a conceptual design to a completed project with full design development and may consist of up to two design boards or one design board and a movie file that demonstrates their design's conceptual imagery.

Each submission should explain what site existed prior to the new, reimagined design. All submissions must use Vectorworks???(R)???AE???? or CINEMA 4D software. Designers can submit only one entry.
