On 7th February have been published the results of “the radical radiators of the future” competition which was run by designboom.
Why I’m writing about this competition? Because it was international competition just like every time on designboom and there was quite a lot of participants from eastern European countries. Some of them are very interesting, some less. So please go and have a look in there. Here´s the pick of interesting entries made by designers from eastern Europe: Mike Žák from Slovak Republic, Michal Pazitny from Slovak Republic, Krzysztof Urbanski + Marcin Trzop from Poland, Maxim Velcovsky from Czech Republic, Gorazd Koscak from Slovenia, Ilya Titov from Russia and definitely you´ll find much more.
