In the midst of the novel COVID-19 pandemic, the contest aims to urge people to utilise available materials to create products with sustainable values.
The contest opens to all individuals living and working in Vietnam including designers, craftsmen and creative entrepreneurs in inter-related fields. Entries must be originally designed by the applicants and have never been submitted to any other prior contests.
Under the support of famous designers and experts in the five areas of Food & Beverage – Living – Fashion – Souvenir – Public Art, contestants will have many opportunities to exchange and learn to create “regenerated” products with high value in design.
The “Designed by Vietnam” Contest also encourages works that showcase Vietnamese characteristics and cultural values using traditional and indigenous materials.

The organizing board will publish works of the 20 finalists and allow online voting on vietnamdesignweek.com from September 7th to October 7th, 2020.
As planned, the final round and an awards ceremony will take place from November 5 to November 10 in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hoi An.
