Global initiative to foster creativity and innovation
BE OPEN Art, an online gallery designed by Elena Baturina’s BE OPEN think tank, is happy to announce its first ever Artist of the Year, selected by the biggest vote among the monthly ratings.
The global online open call #BEOPEN_at_home called for ideas of how creativity and unconventional thinking can help us stay open while staying at home – open to our communities, new ideas and experiences despite physical limitations.
That’s a wrap everyone! Dear friends, we are done collecting submissions for the Design for Sustainable Cities competition!
Thank you everyone for sharing your remarkable creative thinking with us, and most importantly for dedicating your time and talent to researching solutions for the better future for all of us.
‘Design for Sustainable Cities’ is an international student competition held by BE OPEN and Cumulus in support of SDG11: Sustainable Cities and Communities. Its objective is to recognize and promote top design projects developed by the younger creative generation that are able to tackle the tasks set by the United Nations’ SDG Programme.
Season’s Greetings to all creatives around the globe from BE OPEN team!
We wish you a joyful holiday season and a new year filled with happiness, positivity, prosperity, professional and personal accomplishments!
Our congratulations and the €300 prize go to Liliana Nicolae, a photographer from Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany, for the visual of a café sign made of discarded water pipes and fittings.
The international student competition “Design for Sustainable Cities” open for submissions till 31 December 2020
The new open call ‘BEOPEN Better Way’ is dedicated to promoting sustainable and responsible consumption, reusing and recycling all types of waste.
The last of the five prizes in the “Second Life of Things in Design” international student competition has been awarded to the creators of PackZero, a circular delivery network that combines reusable packaging with hybrid pickup and delivery.
