Bond no. 9 bottle design contest

bond-contest.jpg

by robin from nowsmellthis.blogharbor.com:

Bond no. 9 is having a contest to design a new bottle for their new Brooklyn fragrance.

Throughout March 2009, Bond No. 9 invites everyone—amateurs and artists alike—to join our Brooklyn Bottle Design Competition and create additional visuals for this contemporary male-oriented cardamom-cedarwood eau de parfum.

The rules:
Create your design to fit within the outline of the Bond No. 9 superstar flacon and to include the circular “token” logo. You will need to download the image of the bottle from the Bond no. 9 website.

You can use any style, figurative or abstract.
Inspiration can come from anywhere in Brooklyn—DUMBO, Park Slope, Flatbush, Canarsie, Midwood, Bay Ridge, et al.—or from the very idea of Brooklyn.

Any medium is okay: oil, acrylic, watercolor, house paint, pastel, crayon, Magic Marker, makeup—even a ballpoint pen or pencil will do.
Submit your completed design to contactus@bondno9.com by March 31, 2009. The two winners will see their designs put into production with their names on the bottles, and will each receive one bottle of Brooklyn every month for a full year.

U4E – Looking for designers
U4E is a new apparel company with a creative business model and is looking for talented new designers.
The process works as follows:
1. Designers create a free online portfolio as well as a personal bio via the company website and upload their T-shirt creations. There is currently no limit to how many one can upload.
2. Then the U4E community comprised of anyone interested in partaking in the process (which is free) will vote their favorite designs. At the end of each voting cycle (usually 1-2 months) several winners are chosen and their creations are produced and sold through the company website and the partner brick & mortar stores.
3. The designer will receive on average $6 for each T-shirt sold.

This is a good opportunity for any designers interested in gaining exposure in the market, while making some money on the side.

You can create your portfolio online along with your bio by visiting: http://www.u4e.com/index.php?ref=1037

For additional information you can contact the company at feedback@u4e.com

I think this is a pretty fun one. The closing date is quite soon however, the 14th of September, and it's really geared towards fabric designers more than fashion designers. I thought I'd post it anyway incase anyone is a textile/print designer and likes the sound of it:


"IF you live in London you will sit on them (once a week if you are lucky), they are sometimes garish, often dishevelled and over 3.5 million people see them every day - and now the seats on the London Underground are on the receiving end of a fashionable makeover.
For over 100 years the tube network has transported travellers across the capital, and artists and designers through the ages have created the print design for the seating fabric, or "moquette" seen by every passenger. Now Transport For London has launched a competition, for professional and non-professional designers, to create the next fabric.
"I'm really looking forward to seeing the entries people send in," Saskia Boersma, TFL brand licensing manager, said. "Design has always played an important role for London Underground and the new seating fabric will continue this tradition of high quality design."
The design brief, which remains very much the same as it did in 1930, emphasises that the design's colours should respond well to both natural and artificial light, with a pattern which takes account of wear and tear. The winning design will launch on the Piccadilly line in 2012 and will then be adopted across the London Underground system.
The competition deadline is 5pm Monday 14 September 2009. Participants must be 18 years or over. To download the brief and terms and conditions, please visit http://shop.tfl.gov.uk/moquette-competition.html "
