We've just pulled the switch on the latest 1 Hour Design Challenge: Ideation Sketches! This time, we're inviting designers to create the most number of ideation sketches, on any subject, in 60 minutes. Here are all the details:

THEME:
The Most Ideation Design Sketches in 60 Minutes!

DOORS OPEN:
August 4, 2009
9 PM PST (4PM GMT)

DOORS CLOSE:
August 30, 2009
9 PM PST (4 AM GMT)

BRIEF:
Run to the closest printer or copier, grab a small stack of copier paper, and show us some ideation love. Yup, it's as simple as that--create the most number of ideation sketches in as many angles, forms, and scribbles of a single subject of your choice. If you love shoes, sketch 'em. If you're feelin' it for cars, we want to see those. If you're into cellphones, gadgets, gizmos, fashion, or accessories, have at it! We’ve all seen these ideation pages populating your Coroflot portfolios; now's your chance to prepare a stunning array live with the kitchen timer set to 60 minutes!

HOW TO ENTER:
Sketch your best pages onto letter-sized sheets of paper (yes, you can go digital also, just have your board be 8.5" x 11"), scan 'em, and post 'em to the 1HDC submissions forum here.

JURY:
Winners will be selected by Core77 Admin. Quantity counts here of course, but so does beauty--you'll want to create the s3x, most compelling set of ideation sketches possible. Community discussion is encouraged to help ensure that the best designs win.

CRITERIA:
Judging will be based on sketching and design excellence, focusing on form variation, sketch quality, and composition.

PRIZE:
1st, 2nd, and 3rd place designs will be featured in the Core77 Newsletter, on the Core77 Blog, and gain bragging rights heading into the Fall of 2009.

Good Luck!
