Like to eat? Like to design? Combine those two passions by entering the “You Are How You Eat” design contest! We’ve partnered with Design Milk, Adobe, and Alessi to bring you this contest, which asks you to reimagine the everyday tools we use to eat.
To enter, create a design that:
– Is a completed design product concept;
– Is designed for the average adult male and female consumers in any country, who eat food using a utensil;
– Demonstrates an innovative approach to eating;
– Demonstrates your abilities as both a designer and communicator to convey new ideas through one image, title and description.
The contest will be open through October 19, and then judging for finalists will begin. The judges, including our very own Designer Evangelist, Lauren Slowik, will be looking for innovation, creativity, functionality, completeness of design, and adherence to creative brief. Then you – the design community – can vote for the winners!
The Grand Prize winner will receive $1,000 cash courtesy of Alessi, 1 year of Adobe’s Creative Cloud Photography plan (includes Photoshop), $200 of credit to Shapeways so you can 3D print your design*, and your design prominently included in a feature on Design Milk
Two (2) Runners up: 1 year of Adobe’s Creative Cloud Photography plan (includes Photoshop), $100 of credit to Shapeways so you can 3D print your design*, and your design included in a feature on Design Milk.

Great contest! I read the contest description and rules, but didn’t find what exactly qualifies as utensils. Can we only enter variations of spoons, forks and knives or are bowls, plates, cups etc. acceptable as well? Looking forward to your reply 🙂
Hi M – great question! We’ll be looking for designs of the actual utensils rather than the dining/service tools – so forks, spoons, knives, chopsticks or a hybrid or reinvention of them. Have fun designing!
