Hosted by ScotHot 2011, the first ever IDA Young Commercial Designer of the Year Competition, is the only competition aimed solely at designers under the age of 30. The winner will not only be awarded the prestigious title, but will have their design built in the BCFA Interiors and Design Pavilion at ScotHot 2011 – the perfect opportunity to showcase their work in front of more than 8,000 hospitality professionals and buyers, as well as the panel of judges, including Colin Watson of the Interior Design Association, Kate Mooney of Occa Design and Ronnie Burns of Burns Interior Design. Oh, and the winner also receives a lovely £1000 cash prize.
The challenge for entrants is to design a 6m x 4m bedroom, including en-suite bathroom, for a four or five star refurbished boutique hotel. Working with a budget of no more than £25,000 and keeping in mind sustainability being a key focus point for ScotHot 2011, designers must take in to account origin and air miles of their materials. Points will be awarded to those who use UK suppliers and no products are to be sourced from outside Europe.
ScotHot, held at the SECC in Glasgow, is Scotland’s only hospitality interiors, tourism and catering event and attracts over 8,000 trade professionals looking for new ideas for their businesses. For one lucky applicant, this could be the big break that so many young designers are striving for.
The closing date for entries is 22 October 2010
