当一个制造商的未来产品有一半还没有被构思出来的时候，它又是如何规划未来的呢？自然地挑选年轻设计师的大脑。

在这方面，未来派的浴室设计师罗卡一直是创新者(去年，它在扎哈·哈迪德的一栋建筑中推出了伦敦画廊)，他的优势超过了竞争对手。本周，该公司进入了第五个年头，举办了设计大赛，目标是35岁以下的年轻人进入设计职业生涯。

比赛的任务很简单：为明天的浴室设想一个新的概念、产品或空间。

去年的获奖者，波兰的米哈尔·瓦莱基维奇，获得了这一奖项。

罗卡的评审团里挤满了来自设计和建筑界的杰出人士，包括东京建筑实践萨那的Sejima和芬兰设计师Harri Koskinen，以及墙纸的内部总监本杰明·肯普顿(Benjamin Kempton)。9月13日，肯普顿还与罗卡设计经理乔塞普·康诺斯特讨论了创新和趋势。

查看上面的图片库，看看去年的获胜者和决赛者。
