Production of Designs Award
After the results are announced, the designers of the winning designs and the sector representatives will be brought together in an organization to be held by İZFAŞ and a meeting will be conducted. In this meeting, the production of the products decided to be produced by the sector representatives within the designs that are ranked will be carried out by the companies that match the designers during the meeting. The designs produced can be exhibited by İZFAŞ on behalf of the designer at Marble İzmir Fair. The responsibility of İZFAŞ here is to bring only designers and industrialists together.
Design Registration Award
The design registration certificate fee of the first three projects ranked in the competition will be paid by İZFAŞ on behalf of the designer. The design registration process will be carried out by İZFAŞ on behalf of the candidate. The registrations received will belong to the designer. İZFAŞ shall not have any claim regarding the ownership of the design.
Holiday Award
The designer who places in the competition will be awarded a vacation prize sponsored in İzmir Çeşme, one of Turkey’s major holiday destinations, consisting of 3 days and 2 nights in a half-board accommodation concept. The sponsor hotel of this competition is “Boyalık Beach Hotel SPA & Thermal Resort”. The prize includes accommodation and half-board service. Transportation and all other expenses are the responsibility of the participant. Participants may use this prize either between June 1–30, 2026 or September 1–30, 2026. The prize cannot be used outside of these specified dates. Participants must choose their accommodation date and complete their hotel reservation no later than April 30, 2026. The prize is non-transferable. Unused prizes will be cancelled. This award will be given to the fourth place winners of the competition. In the case of group participation, the prize may be used by a maximum of two people with the mutual agreement of the group members. İZFAŞ’s responsibility in this matter is limited to bringing together the designer and the relevant sponsors.
Internship Award
Candidates who placed first, second, and third in the competition (in case of group participation, the award will be used by one person with the mutual agreement of the group members. If approved by İZFAŞ, all group members may be allowed to use the award) will be provided with internship opportunities at marble companies operating in the Aegean Region, if possible.
University Special Award
A 3D printer will be awarded to the university with the highest number of student submissions to the competition. In addition, a faculty member designated by the administration of the first-place university will be invited to İzmir for the award ceremony. For this award, only valid submitted boards will be counted. Projects that are not valid according to the competition specifications will not be considered. A university that has previously won this award cannot receive it again. If a university that has already won this award has the highest number of submissions again, that university will receive only a plaque. The 3D printer will instead be awarded to the university that has not previously won the award and has the highest number of valid submissions under the competition rules.
Software Award
Three students who place in the competition will receive 70 hours of free certified FUSION 360 and AUTODESK REVIT training, provided by the software sponsor PROAEC Software Support Services.
