The Prix Émile Hermès 2014 Furniture Design Competition

For its third annual furniture design competition, the Hermès Enterprise Foundation has chosen the theme “Time to yourself,” reflecting the public’s increasingly vital need for a moment of peace – a chance to escape the relentless activity, ideas and obligations on the super-highway of modern life.

Designs should be created for domestic use as a useful and reproducible product. The Prix Émile Hermès does not cover fashion or clothing. Designs should in no way echo or make reference to the house of Hermès nor to its logo, brand colors or style.

Submissions are due by November 17, 2013. Participants can register online at this link.
