VERY IMPORTANT: No name, surname, or logo of the designer(s) must appear in any of the renderings or photographs submitted for participation in the competition. Inclusion of any identifying information about the designer(s) will lead to disqualification and removal of the work from the competition. Participants have no right to appeal in this matter. • To ensure fair and unbiased evaluation by the jury, the names of the designer(s), company, brand, and any identifying information will be completely hidden from all judges throughout the evaluation process. • The entire submission process is online, and all designer(s) information and project/work details must be entered exclusively through the official website of the Kioskedia International Award. • First, complete your profile through the Login/Register button on the top of the Kioskedia Award website. At each step, enter the requested information exactly in the designated sections on the website and submit your project accordingly. • If you have uploaded a project on the website but did not complete the final submission process, and later wish to edit, update, and finalize the same project, please log in to your account on the Kioskedia Award website. Click on the “Me” option at the top of the website, then select “My Projects Management”. Choose the desired project, click on “Complete Project Information”, fill in the remaining details, and proceed with the final payment. Once completed, your project will be officially submitted. • Entering information in incorrect sections will result in disqualification and removal of the work from the competition.

If there are multiple designers, all names must be listed in the relevant “Designers” section on the website. If there are additional contributors such as photographers, render artists, etc., their names must also be listed under the “Credits” section. All names must be entered at the time of registration. No changes, deletions, or additions to the list of designers or credited individuals will be possible after the results are announced. If any member of the team, whether intentionally or unintentionally — fails to include another member or credited person, the organizer bears no responsibility in this regard. All legal accountability for any potential claim from individuals or entities rests solely with the participants. If it is proven that a designer/team/member has misused another person’s name or credit, the organizer reserves the right to disqualify the entry and, if the work has already been awarded, to revoke the prize and title. Participants have no right to appeal such decisions. • Each designer or design team may submit an unlimited number of projects. For each project, a separate submission must be created on the Kioskedia Award website, including its own descriptions and images, and the entry fee for each project must be paid separately. • Each project must be presented on a minimum of 3 sheets and a maximum of 6 sheets, in A3 size (horizontal or vertical). Preferably, include one image per sheet. If more than one image is placed on a sheet, ensure all images are clear and high-quality. • Entries in the Graphic Design, Photography, Jewelry, and Accessory Design categories may upload a single image as the main/cover image and may leave the “Additional Images” section empty. • Maximum file size for each image: 2 MB, JPEG format only. • Submitting an additional PDF file containing drawings, images, or extra details is optional. Important: Projects that have utilized Artificial Intelligence (AI) in any part of their process must be entered in the AI category. • Participants are fully responsible for the originality and authenticity of their submissions and for the accuracy of all declared information regarding ownership. Uploaded images must not be copied from other designs or belong to any other person, company, or brand (individual or corporate). The organizer holds no responsibility for any ownership disputes. If it is determined that a participant has violated copyright, plagiarized, or used another party’s design or work, the organizer may disqualify the entry and, if awarded, revoke the prize. The participant will have no right to appeal in such cases.
