Dear students:

Overview Design has been at the heart of Swarovski for over the past 120 years, and their collaborations have evolved into coveted opportunities for the world’s leading creatives to express their most radical ideas through crystal. Swarovski, in partnership with luxury design showroom MASS Beverly, is pleased to invite designers of all disciplines to take part in ‘The Brilliance of Design’ competition. The competition challenges designers to submit a design concept that incorporates Swarovski crystal in a work that applies to one of three categories: lighting, home décor or architectural surfaces.

The distinguished jury is looking for imaginative concepts that challenge traditional design approaches and push the boundaries of crystal creativity. Applicants are encouraged to explore Swarovski’s rich design history, as well as its full assortment of crystal colors, effects and materials, to inspire new works. Additionally, Swarovski encourages the use of mixed materials and all designs should celebrate crystal and the art of crystal cutting. When integrating other materials, it is key to consider manufacturing capabilities and limitations for each material. One winner from each category will see their design concept showcased at MASS Beverly and receive crystal sponsorship for future design projects. Winning concepts may also be produced commercially.
