NoChintz launches The Box Project


We've launched a design competition in collaboration with 100% Design London. Through collaboration, inspiration and participation, we hope this project will encourage and support emerging design talent of the North West.

The Box Project consists of a competition for North West creative’s (professional, post graduate and students) where entrants will be asked to challenge the design, function and reason of a 2mx2mx2m micro building to determine…

what’s inside the box?

(Examples being, pop-up retail, pop-up bar etc). Entrants are asked to ‘spend a little, create a lot!’

Be creative, functional, sustainable and innovative, recycle where possible to keep the budget small. 15 finalists will be judged by a panel of respected experts in the creative field and the winner will have their creation made and showcased in September at 100% design, the international design show in London.

Exposure of The Box Project will be reached through regional and national media and a prominent exhibit at 100% Design London, the UK’s leading architecture and design event showcasing everything for the modern building and interior. We want to show that even in this global economic downturn the UK’s northern creative industry is still a thriving and exciting place to be.
