The Contest
Since 1997, the Bruni Glass Design Award has challenged students from industrial design universities across the globe to create innovative glass shapes for a variety of market sectors.
An intense journey that takes academic and hands-on learning to craft a professional future.
Much more than a competition, our contest is a real Workshop - the first in Italy where students are followed step by step by experienced professionals.
Bruni Glass provide students access to their industry leading know-how about all types of glass containers.
