Designing For The Future: Annual Blogging Contest
CGTrader is calling for all bloggers interested in design to join the conversation about the future of design and win $4000 along the way.
Share your insights on the topic “Designing for the future: trends we need to consider now” within the field usually covered in your own blog and be a part of broader discussion of how the future of design will look like.
- Write an original blog post about designing for the future and post it in your blog. As it is the post for your own blog, it is up to you to decide the length, form, and specific question to answer with the piece.
- Inform us about your participation by filling in application form here.
- The submissions should be received before August 1, 2017 11:59PM PT.
The post is your creation and we are sure your experience and ideas will be something unique and reflective of your blog and audience - be creative and do not restrain yourself too much ;) There will be three winners selected, so don’t miss your chance and join now!
If you are sharing your post on social media, don’t forget to use #designingforfuture and learn what thoughts others are spreading. Though surely not required, you can tag CGTrader as well - we will be reading your posts throughout the competition and help spread the interesting ones via our media channels (this, however, will not determine the winning submission - we simply love great insights).
