Design Competitions

Just some thoughts on how to involve design organisations. Many design consultancies put together entries for design competitions and might be more amenable to having a meeting discussing a competition entry filmed then a 'real' project. The plus is that we get a 'pure' form of conceptual designing (effectively without a client although that might depend on the competition). Minus is that we lose something of the 'realness' of designing. Architecture competitions are well known, I'm not sure about product design competitions, would have to check.
