Alfies Antique Market Design Competition
Alfies Antique Market is looking to collaborate with illustrators, graphic designers and creatives to support the Antiques are Green campaign and help design limited edition, iconic canvas bags.
We are looking to create a bag that will become a collectable in its own right and in turn promote antiques as an ethical way to shop through buying investment pieces rather than mass produced products. This competition is for all those vintage lovers who have a keen eye on green issues and want to help support both the antiques industry and campaigns like Antiques are Green.
200 canvas bags will be printed in total and made from sustainable materials and eco-friendly inks. The winner will have their design printed and will receive a £50 Alfies Gift Voucher as well as being heavily promoted. The winning design and runners up will also be shown in an exhibition in the Rooftop Restaurant at Alfies from 15th November to coincide with National Antiques Week.
