Congratulations to future perfect winner cory Thompson!

Beautiful/Decay and Prius Projects are proud to present the winner of the Future Perfect project. It was an extremely tough call but after many days of disscussion we are proud to announce Corey Thompson as the grand prize winner! Not only will Corey get a Beautiful/Decay care package valued at $300 from Beautiful/Decay but he will also have an exclusive interview in Beautiful/Decay Book: 6.
    
We had originally planned on featuring 70 runner-ups in book:6 but having received so many amazing contributions we've decided to increase the artist count to 100! Each runner up will have their submissions featured in the book, creating the ultimate creative book filled with visions of a better tomorrow. We can't release the names of the runner ups just yet but stay tuned for more news as Book: 6 develops. All Beautiful/Decay books are limited edition and always sell out. Make sure to reserve your copy of Book 6 before it sells out by visiting the B/D shop and subscribing today.

Create your vision for a better tomorrow and get featured in Beautiful/Decay book 6.

We want to see the world you want to live in, your Future Perfect. Submit your work of art based on the Future Perfect theme; you are free to use any medium and interpret the theme as you see fit. On March 29th we will pick one lucky person from the submissions who will get a package of Beautiful/Decay goods valued at $300 and a 10-15 page interview in Beautiful/Decay book 6! Up to 70 additional future perfect submissions will also be selected and published.

Share your vision, plan a better tomorrow and join Beautiful/Decay to create a Future Perfect.

Back in 2000, when Toyota engineers first put pen to paper, they envisioned a better world.  The result of their innovative imaginations was the Toyota Prius. And it’s helped to save an estimated 881,079,756.18 gallons of gas in the U.S. since then*.

Their dreams gave way to real global change. This contest is born of that idea.   We all have notions of our perfect world - these could be physical, sonic or emotional notions. Any way you sense it could be the key to unlocking it. So show us your perfect future – however you do it best. 

Even though we view it as completely open ended, our featured artist and Beautiful/Decay Book 6  cover artist Robin Williams (her work "Tired Prince" is pictured above) encapsulates the theme of future perfect, well, perfectly.
