LUX FUTURA | THE FUTURE OF LIGHT

PROCEDURE

The competition addresses students of architecture, interior design, industrial design and recent graduates (final degree no longer than two years ago) and associated disciplines.
It is a two-phase competition. In the first phase (until November 9, 2007) ideas and concepts are assessed. The prize for the best concepts and ideas is the participation in a master class (December 6 – 9, 2007). In this class the concepts are further developed and elaborated in collaboration with internationally renowned architects. All works of the master class will be presented to the public at the Light + Building (April 6 – 11, 2008) in the form of an exhibition and a book documentation. In the second competition phase, three works from this group will be awarded material prizes and prize money.
