** You can enter for up to three different categories, but may only submit only one entry per category.
** Judges are looking for outstanding craftsmanship, aesthetic appeal, a balance between technical excellence and commercial appreciation, and a respect for the medium of concrete.

Architectural Design Competition

** For this category, only University Departments of Architecture may register entrants.
** Kindly note that the submission deadline is not applicable to the Architecture category.

** Marguerite Pienaar at the University of Pretoria will communicate to the various 3rd year lecturers in due course to obtain the names of their selected one to four students whose work will be submitted at the University of Pretoria in March 2019.

** They will then be given their projects followed by a 6-week production phase in line with the university’s individual program schedule.
** Physical projects will then be submitted and finalists selected before the overall winner is named.

** All work must be submitted on three A1-sized boards and as a model or artefact at any scale, though not to exceed 1000mm x 500mm x 500mm in dimensions.

** All entries must be received on or before 17h00 on 26 March 2019 at the newly refurbished Boukunde Building, Hatfield Campus, UP Architecture Department, Pretoria

Fashion, Jewellery & Industrial Design Competition

** Artists are able to enter into these categories with a strong conceptual statement of what they are going to make along with specs, materials they plan to use and any additional material they would like judges to consider (like sketches, videos, photographs of work in progress etc.).

** The judges will then interrogate the work in a pre-selection phase and inform successful artists that they can move into the production phase of the competition.

** Once physical submissions have been received, regional judging will take place and the work will be featured in regional pop-up exhibitions before the finalists and winners are selected.

Online Film Competition

** Artists in this category will need to come up with a concept for a short film that investigates the role that concrete or cement plays in creating our environments.

** To qualify for the R65 000 budget to produce your film, you will need to pitch your idea in front of a panel of judges.

** If you make it through to the next round, you will receive the budget and be paired with an experienced mentor who will guide you through the production phase during which you will submit drafts for review.

** All final edited film submissions will then be considered for final judging.

How Competition Works

** We invite you to push your craftsmanship and creativity using the medium of concrete across 6 categories.

** Each of these 6 categories works a little differently so be sure to interrogate the entry requirements of the category you are most interested in before you submit your entry.
