ABOUT THE COMPETITION

From the submitted projects, the curatorial board selects a line-up of finalists who will present their diploma works to an international jury at Designblok.

HOW TO APPLY?

The Diploma Selection competition is open to graduates of Master's and Bachelor's programmes (if they are completing their studies).
