Ladies and gentlemen, the decision has been taken and we are almost ready to reveal you the pieces that will be part of the new collection of Vetrerie Dal Pian!
Before, we would like to thank our community, that has participated with great enthusiasm to all the contest phases, going beyond our greatest expectations. Vetrerie Dal Pian has appreciated so much your work that we prepared some great surprises for you:
The winning projects together with a selection of the best design proposals will be displayed at the temporary exhibition “Re-Craft Design” during FuoriSalone 2013 – Milano Design Week 2013, one of the most important events in the world for industrial design and furniture. The exhibition will take place in the exclusive showroom Superstudio Più, located in Zona Tortona, from today to Sunday.
Among the Honorable Mentions it will be selected one more piece to be part of Vetrerie Dal Pian’s collection, with the help of the exhibition visitors that will have the chance to vote their favorite project! A great opportunity to present you and your talent to all the design lovers who will visit us.
SELECTION CRITERIA
The selection of Winners and Honorable Mentions by Vetrerie Dal Pian is the result of an in-depth evaluation that has taken into account feasibility, originality, innovation, presentation and consistency with the brief.
First of all, projects must be producible through one or more processing techniques in which Dal Pian is specialized that are listed in the brief. For example, products that include the use of curved glass have been discarded, even if they were extremely interesting, because this process is not offered by the client anymore.
In addition, entries must be original and innovative. If a project was too much similar to an existing product produced by an other company or a second-hand idea we were forced to leave it out of the competition.
Finally, the client was looking for a piece of furniture or an interior design product suitable for a limited series, for a target that asks for excellence and handicrafts. For this reason proposals of consumer goods are not included.
