From the overlooked corners of urban landscapes to the intricacies of objects we use in our daily life, there is a wealth of untapped potential waiting to be unleashed through clever and witty micro-improvements that may appear modest in scale but with the potential to make a substantial impact on sustainability, social equity, health and wellbeing, urban resilience, and much more. As part of the Mikser Festival 2024 edition which explores the power of “Micro-tactics”, the Ghost Project theme “Microcosm” echoes the butterfly effect, where a small gesture can set in motion a chain of events leading to significant change. By focusing on micro-tactics, whether it’s in city elements, design of products and services, or community engagement, designers have the potential to create a ripple effect with far-reaching implications, one well-considered design choice at a time.   Jury of Renowned Design Experts A distinguished jury panel, including Richard van der Laken (founder of What Design Can Do from Amsterdam), successful Ghost Projects’ alumni Vasso Asfi & Loukas Angelou (founders of StudioLav based in London), as well as Balkan design “gurus”: Nikola Radeljkovic (co-founder of Numen / ForUse from Croatia), professor Jelena Matic, and the Ghost Project founder Maja Lalic (both based in Belgrade) will evaluate entries based on their potential to disrupt industries, improve lives, and address societal or environmental issues through innovative micro-tactics.   Submit Your Project and Join the Movement Don't miss this opportunity to showcase your design talent and connect with the Mikser Festival creative community!
