Artie Cup is an international space design competition with a task to “redefine home”. The competition aims to explore more possibilities of home spaces with innovative, scientific, forward-looking, and practical design solutions. In this way, it also seeks to encourage the architects and designers for their creativity to serve a sustainable, healthy, and pleasant living environment.
The 1st Artie Cup came to a successful close at the China International Furniture Fair (Guangzhou) in 2022, covering 200+ universities and 100+ design companies. With plenty of novel submissions, the competition shows a creative blending of the idea of “Redefine Home”. To fully explore the definition of “home” in the new era, the competition committee has now officially launched the 2023 Artie Cup International Space Design Competition.
- Theme -
〖 Redefine Home—Enjoy Your Vacation at Home 〗
Home is the place we are most familiar with, but we seldom think about its definition. What other profound meanings does it hold except for being a shelter from wind and rain?
Our pace of life and business is getting faster and faster. What function should a home have to get us enough rest and refresh us for new challenges in life? Especially throughout the Covid 19 outbreak, we are in urgent needs to connect with the world and release emotional tension. What kind of a home is it that helps us get through difficulties and hardships? Looking into the future, what will happen to our lifestyles with the development of technology and humanities? What are the new demands for home?
The 2nd Artie Cup invites you to reflect on and explore this topic with us.
