I would expect more from a design centered company like LG.

I HATE that spec work has become acceptable in the world of Corporate sponsored competitions. No professional or aspiring professional should support these things.

If you are a student go for it! You will be better for having attempted something like this and it could be a good folio piece if nothing else. I wouldn’t worry too much about the recognition or “property”….if you end up winning, the right people will know who designed it anyway NO WORRIES…just have fun.
