pOne of our favorite (and one of the oldest) design awards, the a href=”http://www.braunprize.com/i”Braunprize/a has announced plans to expand and revamp before it’s next triennial appearance in 2012. In addition to putting the prize back on its former rotation of once every three years, the changes will increase its accessibility and engage design consumers and kindle a renewed interest in emerging markets. /p
pThe revamp is is being led by Professor Oliver Grabes, Head of Braun Corporate Design, and Phil Dunan, Pamp;G’s Global Design Officer. Grabes says:/p
blockquoteIn making some significant changes to the awards process, we are further establishing our commitment to the accessibility of this competition and want to ensure that it not only provides a showcase to those who want to pursue a career in design, but that it also encourages engagement with design for those enthusiasts and professionals outside of an academic context.” He continues “As ever, we want to support great ideas, clarity of vision and practical, beautiful and intuitive solutions to everyday concerns, the trademarks of Braun’s influential design process./blockquote
pThe details are still under wraps and the competition still long in coming, but it’s never too early to start planning!
