The key design aspect of your Reimagined Living and Working Space, whether in the office or at home, is that it must have a dual function - to live and to work. Whether you want the spaces to be interconnected or separate is up to you. It must be one building but it can be one room, or several, the scale and scope is for you to decide. As long as your artwork portrays part or all of a building or space and depicts its dual living and working use, it is eligible. Your artwork should be accompanied by a short description of your proposal, no more than 200 words.

Your artwork image file should be a minimum of 2000 pixels wide, with a maximum file size of 15MB.

We have deliberately left this competition open for interpretation – we are keen to see your Reimagined.
