Throughout the years, this annual showcase has chronicled the evolution of design, and highlighted its impact on our material and visual culture. Each year, the featured work is chosen by a jury of leading practitioners, who, along with I.D.'s editorial team, focus the abundance of submissions into a clear survey of the state of design. The resulting overview is published in the July/August issue of I.D. magazine — the Annual Design Review issue." See the full story and competition details <a href="http://www.id-mag.com/2010ADR/">here.</a> <div><br /></div><div>This is not a free entry competition and, "All entries must be postmarked or submitted online no later than December 1, 2009. Entries postmarked or submitted online after December 1 require a late fee of $25 per entry ($15 for students). Entries postmarked after December 15, 2009 will not be accepted." <br /><div><br /></div><div>Special thanks to Dan Scott for sending the link to this. </div></div>Boonyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11973310063095118118noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745935933754500606.post-1631232374608864222009-10-06T14:41:00.003+10:302009-10-06T14:46:44.649+10:30Some Bike Designs<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEif_brsHKIWV96Z8mJrVgTKyPFzCl8eXwH7VC1q4-Gf6JCq0PDttHl1LhK0IV5RokAh40CCfuyajyVvrYHbbviSWlipL8zHs9H9CT-CLKNL363PT6FF9NQ1Tmz8MglsLQVs9FYszIQtEHo/s1600-h/020_pulse_introimage.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 233px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEif_brsHKIWV96Z8mJrVgTKyPFzCl8eXwH7VC1q4-Gf6JCq0PDttHl1LhK0IV5RokAh40CCfuyajyVvrYHbbviSWlipL8zHs9H9CT-CLKNL363PT6FF9NQ1Tmz8MglsLQVs9FYszIQtEHo/s400/020_pulse_introimage.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5389335414724646386" /></a><div>The <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/">Business Week</a> website posted a collection of varying bicycle designs.
