'Think outside the parking box'

Nissan and Designboom have launched an international graphic design competition in search of a cutting edge design to challenge the concept of conventional urban parking. 

Nissan's new vehicle, the Qashqai, is being pitched as 'Urbanproof'. Designs for the competition 'may challenge any element of urban parking... Ideas must challenge current perceptions of urban parking and offer a tougher, sleeker, or even playful rendering of it.'¹

The jury for the competition has been announced and includes renowned designer Karim Rashid, and gallerist Steve Lazarides (known for introducing street artists including Banksy into the art market). 

This competition is a great opportunity for international exposure, both in the design community (via Designboom) and to the general public. 

The designers of the three winning entries will win a cash prize of:

• First prize € 5000 
• Second prize € 3000
• Third prize € 2000
