In past years, over 1,000 students from more than 40 countries have competed for the honour. Once again, students of graphic design, architecture, product and communication design, typography, photography, illustration, typeface and experience design are invited to apply. An international jury will meet in April in Amsterdam to decide on the awarding of the main prize endowed with 3,000 euros and on the ’distinction’-awards. A selection of the best projects will be presented in the :output yearbook. In addition, all projects submitted will be presented on the Portfolio platform and on :output’s Hall of Fame web page.
