BACK
The Fourth International Trieste Contemporanea Design Competition requested this year the contestants from 17 European countries (Albania, Austria, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Macedonia, Moldavia, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic, Slovenia and Ukraine) to design an object inspired by Travel.

In the conclusive show were exhibited 35 projects, very different in type and function, which have gone through the severe jury’s selection. Gillo Dorfles, Toni Biloslav (Slovenia), Gábor Kopek (Hungary), Marco Romanelli, Berislav Valušek (Croatia) and Zdeněk Ziegler (Czech Republic) in fact examined the projects and screened the works worthy of being exhibited. From them they chose the six best projects.









“S piega” distinguished itself for “ the conceiving of a complex system which concerns the possibility of a practical use (i.e. bag and pillow) as well as one of a “ship’s instrument” to equip oneself for tourist journeys. Finally the jury considered “Masporta” and “www.sonorous landscapes” as proposals which “offer two different approaches to the theme of travel design: the first - a sweatshirt/bag - from a practical point of view as well as implying a typological invention, the second of conceptual content as well taking care to integrate in the new technologies the memory of the places”.
