Roulette 2024

10 statements.
10 studios.
10 internships.

One roulette wheel.

This year we are delighted to be working with ten incredible studios and our six partner universities to celebrate excellence in graphic design.

Roulette is a competition with boundless scope for what can be created, and opportunities for 30 students to be showcased, with 10 winning a four week paid internship in London, Manchester or Leeds.

Spin the wheel, take a chance!

How it works

Ten studios have each created a starting statement, which eligible students are assigned at random with the help of a roulette wheel.

There are no rules.

Students can take their statement in any way, for any audience, in any media — they just need to show the link to the original statement, however tenuous!

The catch

No one knows which statement corresponds to which studio until the finalists are announced!

The prizes

30 finalists (three for each statement) will present to their studio for the chance to win a four week paid internship and their work showcased by The CDCT online & at Celebrating Design 2024, and by the studio.

Finalists receive mentoring, a portfolio review with their studio and are also showcased.

It costs £20 to enter, and your donation will help us support students through The CDCT Grants in 2025 and beyond.
