AATCC announced its third annual C2C/CITDA design competition developed by its Concept 2 Consumer (C2C) Interest Group and the Computer Integrated Textile Design Association in August 2006.
Submissions were invited from both graduate and undergraduate students from institutions with textile design programs and those with art, interior design, and fashion merchandising programs. This year's competition brought in nearly 160 entries from 25 different institutions!.
The theme of this year's competition was “Rainy Days & Picnics,” and the contest was divided into two main categories, with each category broken down into two sub-categories: Apparel Design : students were asked to create rainwear products (ponchos, boots,umbrellas, coats, etc) •Print Design : Digitally-rendered print design collection •Product Design : Design collection & tangible end product Interior Design : students asked to create table linens (tablecloths, runners, placemats,napkins, picnic ensembles, place settings, etc) •Print Design : Digitally-rendered print design collection •Product Design : Design collection & tangible end product.
Entries were evaluated on color, texture, visual appeal, pleasure, aesthetics, reproducibility, and how these aspects relate to functionality.
Five finalists in each sub-category were asked to submit story boards and final products for judging on April 30, 2007. Winners were announced at AATCC's C2C Interest Group meeting, held in conjunction with the AATCC Committee Meetings on May 3, 2007.
