Please include graphics that allow the jury to understand the project, what it will look like, and how participants will interact with it. Feel free to use any graphic style that is comfortable to you or appropriate to the project: hand-drawn, photos, sketch-up, CAD, etc., all are all perfectly appropriate and acceptable. The most important thing is clarity.

Break-down of a budget:
