This year, the star of the Viefe Design Competition will be door stoppers and their many possible interpretations. Surprise us with your design!
THE TOP DOOR STOPPER
Send us your design for what you consider “the top door stopper”; a door stopper whose shape, ease of use, materials and installation make it perfect for fitting on all types of floors or walls. It should add style, while at the same time being functional and preventing banging. You can propose whatever materials and measurements for a door stopper you see fit, provided that they can be integrated into private dwellings and also into bespoke contract projects for public spaces (restaurants, hotels, offices).
Are you already picturing it? Then enter the competition!
