There is just one month left to enter our Start Something Powerful Competition, which calls for ideas that could have a powerful impact on how people live over the next 100 years. Enter now before the contest closes on 21 August.

Announced earlier this month, Dezeen and Bentley have teamed up to launch another global contest that invites architects and designers to envisage innovative architecture or design concepts that could have a transformative effect on people's lives.

Through the design contest, Dezeen and Bentley aim to discover prototypes that could serve as a blueprint for future living, anticipating the needs, technologies and lifestyle trends for the next century.

Contest calls for ideas that empower people to live fulfilling lives

Contestants are tasked with envisioning concepts that respond to rapid advancements in technology, evolving societal norms and environmental concerns to transform people's lives.

Proposals should have a significant positive impact on people's health and wellbeing, as well as on the natural environment, to empower people to live fulfilling lives for years to come.

The competition, which is free to enter for anyone over the age of 18 of any profession and from any country around the world, is open for entries until 21 August 2024.

It features total prize money of £30,000 and a top prize of £15,000.

Full details of how to enter the competition can be found in the competition brief and rules.

How to enter

Entrants must submit a description of their idea explaining how it meets the brief, along with supporting imagery showcasing the concept.

Entrants have the option to produce a video or animation of the design, which should be uploaded to an external hosting platform such as YouTube or Vimeo and submitted via a URL.

Entries will be judged by a panel of designers and journalists from Bentley and Dezeen.

Judges will be looking for bold, ambitious and forward-looking concepts that could reimagine the way future generations live, just like Bentley redefined the motor car in the 1920s and continues to do so today.

Proposals must align with the Bentley brand, demonstrating the highest levels of innovation, beauty and craftsmanship.

Competition closes for entries on 21 August

Contestants are free to use generative AI tools for their submission but must disclose what tools they have used and how.

The Start Something Powerful Competition closes for entries at midnight on 21 August 2024.
