The "red dot award: communication design" ranks first in the list of the most important design competitions for the corporate identity sector.
This is the result of the study "Corporate identity - status quo 2009, expert survey CI/CD agencies" published by Professor Robert Paulmann, corporate identity institute, Mainz, Germany.
In the study, the red dot design award was voted into first place out of all internationally relevant design competitions.
The iF communication design award came second by a large margin, and the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany took fourth place.
This analysis is based on an online survey carried out in March and April 2009.
In total, 109 agencies from all over Germany took part in the survey.
The selection attempted to reach the largest possible spectrum with regards to company size as well as location.
