NYU GenART Club is teaming up with Krea.ai for a hands-on AI design challenge — open to ALL students 🎓 No design experience needed.
$500 cash prize + free Krea.ai Pro membership just for signing up.
⚠️ RSVP with your .edu email before April 13th, 11:59 PM EST to claim your free Krea.ai Pro credits.
🎨 The Challenge
Use Krea.ai to design something that doesn’t exist yet.
Module 1: Design an original piece — furniture, wearable, object, space, anything. Think bold silhouettes, unexpected materials, futuristic functionality, or culturally inspired storytelling.
Module 2: Create a promotional image that launches your piece to the world.
No rules on what you make. A chair, a lamp, a floating shelf, a helmet, a house — surprise us.
