About the Red Dot Design Awards

The Red Dot Award Product Design is one of the world's largest design competitions. In 2019, designers and manufacturers from 55 countries entered more than 5,500 products in the competition. The international jury comprises experienced experts from different disciplines and has been convening for more than 60 years in order to select the year’s best designs. During an adjudication process that spans several days, they try out the products, discuss them and ultimately reach a well-founded decision regarding the design quality of the entries. True to the motto 'In search of good design and innovation', their assessment focuses on criteria such as the level of innovation, functionality, formal quality, longevity and ergonomics.
