Third Edition of SCA's Design Challenge Open to New U.S. Designers

This year's challenge: to create an innovative packaging design for LEGO's 'Bricks and More' starter set and SCA's Tempo tissue box.

Contest finalists will be invited to a workshop in one of SCA's Design Centers in Europe, including a visit to the factories of the two category sponsors in Denmark & Germany. During this workshop, finalists will receive expert support and guidance to improve their designs before submitting them to the SCA Design Challenge final.

In addition to getting the chance to work with industry professionals and pitch their work to well-established designers, finalists will be awarded a share of over $19,500 in prize money, and category winners will receive internships at SCA Packaging. Moreover, the winning concepts may even make it into production.

“This year, we are partnering up with two leading brand manufacturers and submissions to the Design Challenge need to focus around two very recognizable products. In addition, we are opening up the competition globally,” says Katia Schotte, Communications Director at SCA Packaging. “We believe this will make an interesting mix and will surely enrich the final shortlist.”

Submissions to the SCA Design Challenge 03 will be accepted until December 4th, 2011.
