Anonymity
All entries are to be judged anonymously so no references to the designer or design firm can be made on the online submission form.
When preparing entries for physical submission do not add any form of identification of the submitting designer or design firm. If your name is printed on the project itself because it is a self-promotion or because your client gave you a place for credit do not worry about covering it up, it is okay to enter it as is.
