* The following article is an excerpt from Design in/from Spain magazine for smartphones and tablets.
Valencia furniture company Andreu World has announced the winners of its 14th International Design Competition. The judging panel had to scrutinise more than 1,000 designs from 18 countries and after much deliberation they chose a first and second prize winner, with four designs receiving honorable mentions. Illustrious jury members included rug designer Nani Marquina, architect Ramón Esteve and Vicente Verdú from El Pais. They say the judging criteria were about aesthetics and construction techniques that would make it possible to manufacture the piece commercially – ie it shouldn't be a product that would take hours of meticulous hand-crafting.
Spain's leading contemporary outdoor furniture company Gandía Blasco has announced the winners of its ninth Outdoor Furniture Design competition. Entrants were asked to design an outdoor shower in a style that would suit Gandia Blasco's aesthetics and it received interesting ideas from designers around the world. The judging panel comprised Gandia Blasco's president, José A. Gandía-Blasco, Fernando Márquez, director at architecture magazine El Croquis, Fran Silvestre, principal architect at Fran Silvestre Arquitectos, Andrés Alfaro, founder of Alfaro Hofmann design studio, and architect and product designer Borja García.
