The Red Dot Design Award is an international design competition. The accompanying distinction “Red Dot” has become established internationally as one of the most sought-after marks of quality for good design. The award breaks down into the three different disciplines “Red Dot Award: Product Design”, “Red Dot Award: Brands & Communication Design” and “Red Dot Award: Design Concept”. Each competition is held once every year.
The Red Dot Award: Product Design is an international design competition whose origins date back to 1955. Manufacturers and designers from all over the globe can choose from roughly 51 categories in which to register their best products. In line with the motto “In search of good design and innovation”, a jury evaluates all of the entries and only awards a Red Dot to products that win them over with high design quality.
The Regular registration phase for the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2025 ends on 17 January 2025.
