    And the winner is...

    We have a winner! It took a bit longer than expected to come out with the results, but ladies and gentleman the final decisions were made [insert drums here]…

    It is a pleasure to announce Real Time Chat by the Brazilian designer Layla Caval­cante as the winner of the competition. The project has been awarded with USD$1000 cash and we’re looking for a venue to exhibit it (if you are interested on exhibiting please contact me).

    Aside from the winner, the jury gave a honorary mention to the project Powdered Neem as Fast Food Condiment by Jude Genilo, Rahman Faizur Rafique and Ommul Fatema from the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh.
