About the Red Dot Design Award:
In order to appraise the diversity in the field of design in a
professional manner, the Red Dot Design Award breaks down into the
three disciplines of Red Dot Award: Product Design, Red Dot Award:
Communication Design and Red Dot Award: Design Concept. The Red Dot
Award is one of the world's largest design competitions. In 1955, a
jury convened for the first time to assess the best designs of the
day. In the 1990s, Red Dot CEO Professor Dr. Peter Zec developed the name and brand of the
award. Ever since, the sought-after Red Dot distinction has been
the revered international seal of outstanding design quality. More
