The Design Institution seeks to promote the development of the design practice and gathers together designers from all over the world who work everyday to improve the vision of the design world around us.

It’s currently hosting an international competition: The Designer’s Workstation 2008. Designers, both professional and students, are invited to submit their ideas about the ideal work station for the designer of the XXI century.

Materials should be submitted in jpeg format via the Design Institution website. Designs will be judged by an esteemed panel in accordance with the following criteria: innovation, functionality, materials, anthropometry, and context.

Cash prizes of up to $4000 USD will be awarded, and winning designs and other selected works will be published in a virtual exhibition on The Design Institution website.
