For those of you that don’t know, Scotland Re:Designed – founded by the legend that is Chris Hunt – works as a platform to promote Scottish design to an international audience in a creative and contemporary fashion. This kind of support and advice money just cant buy, from PR to Stockists to Collaborations the word opportunity is an understatement.

The New Talent Competition is open to all graduate designers who have either part of, or a full collection, ready to display. Unlike the main Scotland Re:Designed exhibition you don’t need stockists – you simply need to be able to get some pulses racing using nothing but your raw talent. Seem simple enough?  Visit the SR:D website for more information, you will find the application and the criteria needed to submit it! Good Luck to all entrants this year – I think they will have a tough time choosing!
