This prestigious contest not only invites young designers to partner with traditional craftsmen but also encourages a harmonious blending of contemporary artistry with cultural depth and regional identity. As a result, participants are inspired to create unique craftworks that reflect the essence of their heritage while appealing to modern sensibilities.

To ensure a thorough evaluation, participants are assessed based on several criteria, including cultural elements, aesthetic techniques, and innovative potential. Notably, the contest features two prominent categories: 'Premium' and 'Exquisite.' These categories are specifically designed to spotlight a wide array of exceptional works, fostering an inclusive environment for creativity. Moreover, the contest seeks to draw inspiration from local contexts, skillfully integrating local materials with traditional craftsmanship. By doing so, it not only showcases the rich heritage of Taiwan but also highlights the dynamic creativity inherent in its cultural and creative industries.
