Competitions
Only Natural International Student Design Competition
The competition champions natural materials and asks students to rethink the impact of the choices we make in fashion, furniture and the spaces we live in.
Synthetic production continues to drive water and air pollution, deplete natural resources and create a cycle of low-cost, short-lived products destined for landfill. Only Natural invites designers to push back against this and imagine something better.
