### The Brief

**The Renaissance of the Metaverse** is a 3d buildathon event, designed to spur the creation of new virtual worlds. It’s an open call for Architects, Designers, and Artists, to build 3d spaces centered around 3 categories:

Spaces **To Gather**. Design gathering spaces to meet & share big ideas. 

Spaces **To Show Art**. Design spaces to display incredible works of art. 

Spaces **To Perform**. Design event spaces for live performances.

The aesthetic interpretation is where you can let your imagination run free. 

### Prizes

There is $250,000 of prize money for this build-a-thon. The top 18 winning Spaces are required to be minted as NFT and will be bid on by Protocol Labs for the following prize amounts: 3 grand prizes of $30,000, 5 top prizes $10,000, 12 design prizes of $3,000. 

Additionally, there are 30 creator prizes of $1,000 each, and 60 finalist prizes of $300.  An additional $15,000 in community bonus prizes will be awarded along with $10,000 in interactivity bonus prizes.  

### Judging

Judging will be centered around the utility of Spaces as outlined in the brief.

The Renaissance will be judged by a panel of industry experts, including CEO of Protocol Labs, Juan Benet, that will be announced in February 2022.
