The

Ilen CityOne Limerick Design Competition

invites designers to submit designs for the sails and hull of a new

CityOne

performance sailing dinghy. Four of these

CityOne

dinghies are currently under construction through an innovative social educational programme.

The

CityOne

dinghy is an exciting new performance sailboat developed by the

A.K. Ilen School

and designed by naval architect

Theo Rye

.

Design submissions should express and explore the CityOne’s dynamic, energetic, fast and modern clean lines. The graphic solution for these dinghies should be conducive to longevity of style, and be imagistically strong when viewed close-up, or at a distance in motion on a shimmering river.

A high level of

creative freedom is encouraged

– bold shapes and strong colours seem best suited for application by spray-painting to the hull, and painting to the sail fabric. Photographic imagery and complex drawn shapes are not suited to the specific limits of conventional and spray painting. The position and colour of the CityOne logo on the hull and sail must remain as a corporate identity compliance.

Each single or group entry must submit only one design. All designs must be submitted using the official

CityOne Competition Template

in a scalable vector graphic format (EPS or PDF). All designs should be original artworks entirely of the designers’ own work, not contain any copyrighted material and should not have been previously published in print, internet, social media etc.

There is no entry fee
