According to the jury, composed of Francisco Aires Mateus and Fernando Brízio, the three awarded projects by the students of the Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Design “revealed new ways of approaching the bathroom space” and “demonstrate the value of 100% Portuguese design.”
António Oliveira, CEO of OLI, reveals that these initiatives will be repeated, as “the company is open to the community and in constant contact with universities, where it has developed innovative solutions through the enormous ambition and strong creative spirit of Portuguese students.”
More than 50 projects were in competition, and nine were shortlisted for the final.
The three winning proposals are expected to reach the market in 2013.
