　　大賽主題釋義： 

　　設計是地球上千百萬人的共同語言，它的力量和有效性歸功于創造者的多樣性、他們的獨特感知和他們異質的根源，但不知道邊界、承諾、宗教或綠線。設計已經成為人類塑造環境，從而塑造社會和自己，并引起真正變化的最有力的手段。平面設計具有塑造、影響、挑戰并最終改變我們普通感知、理解、解釋事物的能力。平面設計需要創造力和想象力，這些都是基于感知的。我們所感知到的不僅僅是我們的眼睛或耳朵帶給我們的大腦，它是我們自己頭腦的產物。感知是我們所看到的，我們過去的經驗和我們對某一情境的特定觀點的結合。

　　它也是通過我們的感官看到、聽到或理解某事，然后用邏輯、情感或任何其他方式解釋它，最終產生心理印象的能力。

　　感知不是靜態的，但它被改變和成形，受多種因素的影響。視覺傳達設計師不僅擁有正確的工具和知識，而且有責任去挑戰、影響和改變共同的感知。

　　本次大賽的主題“平面設計，挑戰感知”以及各自的展覽，旨在突出和提升平面設計在塑造和挑戰共同感知方面的價值。比賽的參與者被邀請可視化他們的想法，想法和關注設計的力量塑造和挑戰的感知，他們被要求挑戰的感知。
