Competition is fun. Competition where you get to promote your creative work is even more fun. Recently, I learned about a Pantone contest that promotes, what else, color. The rules are simple and the prizes are pretty darn good; for those of us in the fashion, interior and textile industry, of course. Below are some of the details. Check them out and if you think your work is color-fantastic, consider submitting.
RULES:
- Submit any project from your portfolio that exemplifies mind-blowing color.
- Only one entry per user is permitted.
- Submissions will be judged on how colors are used in the piece, how they impact the design, and help communicate the intended message. Judges will also be looking for innovative color combinations and bold use of color that adds to the work’s appeal.
