Next Generation® Design Competition

Metropolis, the leading magazine of architecture, culture, and design, is challenging emerging designers to define "inclusive design." The annual Next Generation® Design Competition asks those who will design the 21st century to develop solutions that empower, advance, and include groups often overlooked in the design process (including, but not limited to, the rapidly increasing aging population and citizens with disabilities).

 

Entries are due February 18th 2013
