【2021 Taiwan International Student Design Competition Online Meeting】- 10/17 Jurors of Final Selection & International Design Association Final Outcome Announcement

Organized by the Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Education (Taiwan), and executed by Asia University, 2021 Taiwan International Student Design Competition (2021TISDC) invited the final selection jurors to join 2021TISDC’s “Jurors of Final Selection & International Design Association Final Outcome Announcement” on October 17th (Sun.) 6:00 p.m. – 11:30 p.m. (GMT+8). 

Led by Project Director Pan Soong Lin and the whole executive team, 36 jurors participated in this online meeting. This meeting aimed to announce the evaluation result of the Final Selection, the winning works in three categories- Product Design Category, Visual Design Category and Digital Animation Category and to confirm the International Design Association Special Prize. 

As TISDC was unable to hold an actual selection this year due to the pandemic outbreak, TISDC hopes to maintain its credibility by holding this online meeting to gather broader perspectives from our international jurors. The theme of 2021TISDC is “Regenerate – building upon the foundation of the past and adopting a new perspective to forge a path into the future and give rise to a new paradigm” which is related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) proposed by the United Nations in 2015. TISDC would also like to encourage students who are interested in design from both Taiwan and abroad to join the competition actively. During the meeting, 36 international jurors from over 10 countries attended and shared their unique perspectives and provided suggestions to TISDC. Not only does the meeting prove the internationalization of this competition, but also confirms the winners of this year’s TISDC. Furthermore, TISDC confirmed the final outcome of the international design association special prize with all the representatives.
