Subject
the subject of the international design competition is
‘shelter in a cart’
design a cart that can provide shelter and storage.

urban homeless use carts to carry their possessions and to
collect goods (like bottles, cardboard, etc.) that they then return
to various recyclers in exchange for cash. this provides a small
and valuable income. it is essential that your cart design not only
accommodates all these functions but that it is affordable
(for production and for private parties or charity organisations
who wish to donate them).

designboom will present USD 2000 towards the prizes, which will
increase depending on the number of sponsors who wish to take part
in this competition. the total prize fund will be announced before the
competition deadline.

and as always
designboom will publish an exhaustive results report.
