Design Concours

Design Concours, is a special type of design competitions open to public (including non-designers), these are also called configuration-competitions, because anyone could join and configure a product or design using the available configurator tool provided by the platforms. These types of events are organized to collect user insights and create publicity for the organizers. Participation is always free, and the brief is always very simple, but for any professional designer, the Design Concours are a total loss of time, unless you are a winner. These competitions are totally non-academic. There is usually nothing for participants except money offers, but still they are marketed as competitions. Furthermore some platforms to run Design Concours are designed to ignite creative as well as vulgar fight between participant designers.
