What is topcoder Studio?

Studio challenges top creative talent from around the world to present their best concepts to clients searching for new design solutions.

Clients have multiple designs to choose from. Designers have multiple ways to win.

Our clients hold competitions where designers compete for cash prizes, along with placement points that accumulate for the opportunity to win larger cash awards in our monthly tournament called the Studio Cup and the annual TCO tournament.

By tapping into a pool of creative people with multiple specialties, our clients benefit from new approaches and innovative concepts from a global community. Our competitors are here not just to win prizes, but to learn new skills, consult with peers, and earn the chance to be called one of the best designers in the world.

How does it work?

The competition process ignites creativity in both the client and the Studio members.

• Contest holders specify the goals, requirements and scope of the design project.

• The competition is posted and Studio members submit their designs.

• The client then evaluates the submissions and chooses a winner (or multiple winners).

• The design is transferred to the client and the winners receive prizes and placement points for ongoing tournaments.

Clients engage the Studio community for design work ranging from icon creation to full application user interface design. Common competitions include logos, web design, banners, print design, and application UI design.
