Introduction
The Roca One Day Design Challenge continues to expand its presence in China, and this year for the first time, Beijing has joined the competition. In it, as usual, the participants had to design a bathroom product in just a few hours. The proposed theme was to redesign a bathroom product that provides an experience related to wellness, in addition to meeting relax, hygiene and sanitation needs.
“DIY” won the first prize with the unanimous vote of the jury. This project stood out for incorporating a very important concept in Chinese culture: harmony. In addition, the product presented great flexibility and ergonomics.
The Roca One Day Design Challenge initiative was created by Roca with the aim of supporting young students and professionals in the architecture and design sectors by providing them with a platform that allows them to make contact with the professional world and test their skills and creativity.
