Community Edition Project Returns: Join Nothing in Innovating Phone (3a)
Nothing, a technology company based in London, is excited to announce the return of its Community Edition Project. This initiative invites creative individuals from its fan community to take part in designing and marketing the anticipated Phone (3a). The second iteration of this project aims to exceed the success of its predecessor, featuring four new creative challenges and an impressive £1,000 cash prize for each winner.
Project Timeline and Submission Process
Beginning on March 26 and continuing until April 23, 2024, Nothing welcomes submissions from those interested in hardware design, accessory development, software design, and marketing efforts. Winners will enjoy a rare chance to collaborate closely with the design team at Nothing, bringing their innovative ideas to fruition.
Enhancing Collaboration and Creativity
Nothing anticipates that the expansion of the Community Edition Project will provide participants with ample time to refine their concepts and encourage collaboration among winners. This is a strategy aimed at improving the overall quality and creativity of the final output.
A Recap of the Original Project
The first Community Edition Project was launched in March 2023 and marked Nothing’s initial foray into collaborative creation with its devoted community. This initiative led to a limited-edition, glow-in-the-dark variant of the successful Phone (2a) Plus, with 1,000 units selling out online in a mere 15 minutes. This unique product design even received a prestigious Gold iF Design Award.
Broader Scope of This Year’s Challenge
This year’s challenge unveils a more extensive range of opportunities with four distinct categories:
- Hardware Design: Participants are encouraged to create an exciting, innovative appearance for the Phone (3a).
- Accessory Design: Creators can suggest concepts for exclusive collectibles or accessories designed to complement the Phone (3a) Community Edition.
- Software Design: Designers may contribute user interface elements such as wallpapers, widgets, and custom icon packs to enhance user experience.
- Marketing Campaign: Marketing enthusiasts can put forward creative proposals for promotional visuals, launch events, or comprehensive campaign strategies.
How to Get Involved
To join in on this creative endeavour, participants can submit their ideas via Nothing’s official website. Comprehensive details, submission guidelines, and terms and conditions are readily accessible at nothing.tech. Furthermore, updates and announcements will be circulated on the Nothing YouTube channel.
