Growing dimension
Since it was launched in 2000, the Peugeot Design Competition has attracted more than 12,600 entries presented by 9,300 young designers, illustrating the clear interest in Peugeot and automotive design.
The competition has also generated a growing interest among young designers, who’s average age is now 22, having fallen from 28 in 2000. Reflecting Peugeot’s international expansion, the audience for this car design challenge now extends well beyond Europe with 113 countries represented in 2007, compared to 80 for the first competition.
To accompany the competition, two international partners are working with Peugeot: Xbox 360 and Norev.
Composition of the jury and selection criteria
The jury will be composed of Peugeot representatives and, most particularly, members of its Style Centre, representatives of the company Xbox, and also journalists and internet users who will be invited to vote online on the site www.peugeot.com.
The choice will be made according to the criteria of originality in the submitted design, quality of the end product (visuals, animations), explanations of the concept and above all consistency with the theme.
