# Condom Design Competitions Toronto Public Health is Asking Artists to Make a City-Centered Wrapper By Riley von Niessen | Published 2016-09-21 | World Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toronto-public-health References: [onecondoms](https://www.onecondoms.com/pages/contest/condomto) & [twitter](https://twitter.com/TOPublicHealth/status/778250722370543616/photo/1) In partnership with the [Miami Ad School](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/menopause-retreat), [Toronto Public Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ink-the-rainbow) created a contest for students and recent grads who are interested in winning a paid internship with a top-tier agency or free courses. To enter, artists must submit their original designs in at least 300 dpi and a 250 x 250 pixel format. Although Toronto Public Health encourages entrants to incorporate the city into their designs, those who make use of the "Toronto logo or sign, Toronto sports teams and stadiums, or trademarked logos, structures or buildings (including the CN Tower)" will not be accepted. While the paid internship is only open to the 'Student Division,' the winner of the 'Open Division' is awarded $9,000 worth of education. Meanwhile, those coming in second in each are awarded an [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mrm-ny) iPad mini. In addition, Toronto Public Health claims that "Millions of people will appreciate your art then tear it in half" -- as the winner's design will be included on the free condoms that are distributed in the city. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Regional](https://www.trendhunter.com/regional) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Artistic Condom Designs:** Opportunity for artists to create unique and city-centered designs for condom wrappers. - **Contests for Design Students:** Increased popularity of design competitions for students and recent grads with attractive prizes. - **Integration of City Branding:** Growing trend of incorporating city elements and culture into product designs. ### Where This Applies - **Design Education:** Potential for educational institutions to offer courses and programs related to condom design and marketing. - **Advertising Agencies:** Opportunity for agencies to collaborate with public health organizations on design contests and campaigns. - **Contraceptive Products:** Potential for condom manufacturers to partner with artists and leverage unique designs to increase market appeal. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Billboard Design Competitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halo-burger-billboard.md) - [Sexual Wellness Streetwear Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goat-condom.md) - [Playful Interactive Donut Contests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/battle-of-the-donuts.md) - [Safer Sex Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/use-a-condom.md) - [Vegetable-Themed Condoms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-rise-of-horticulture.md) - [Creative Protection Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skyn-supreme-feel-condoms.md) - [Cosmetic Branding Design Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unsexydesignchallenge.md) - [Senior Safe Sex Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fcking-old.md) - [Condom Brand Bundles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/condom-brand1.md)
