Ghost Project 2024: Microcosm – Design Competition

As a host to the Ghost Project 2024: Microcosm – Design Competition, Mikser Association invites all young designers to participate with their best works.

Ghost Project is an international platform for talents in the field of product design.

Selected designers will have a chance to Showcase designs at the Mikser Festival in Belgrade, Serbia (23-25 May, 2024), participate in dynamic discussions and workshops, network with established creative disruptors and social innovators, and more.

Explore the Power of Micro-improvements

The Ghost Project 2024 theme, “Microcosm“, encourages designers to explore the potential of small-scale interventions.

From the overlooked corners of urban landscapes to the intricacies of objects we use in our daily life, there is a wealth of untapped potential waiting to be unleashed through clever and witty micro-improvements that may appear modest in scale but with the potential to make a substantial impact on sustainability, social equity, health and wellbeing, urban resilience, and much more. As part of the Mikser Festival 2024 edition which explores the power of “Micro-tactics”, the Ghost Project theme “Microcosm” echoes the butterfly effect, where a small gesture can set in motion a chain of events leading to significant change. By focusing on micro-tactics, whether it’s in city elements, design of products and services, or community engagement, designers have the potential to create a ripple effect with far-reaching implications, one well-considered design choice at a time.

Submit Your Project and Join the Movement

The competition is open to all designers up to 35 years of age (individuals or groups), from all over the world.
