Once again the red dot award: product design goes on its annual search for good design, this year for the 53rd time.

Registration dead-line of the red dot award: product design 2007 is 19 January 2007.
Design is indispensable in today's international competition. Therefore, it is important to identify outstanding design and to label it as such. The red dot design award is one of the oldest and most renowned design competitions worldwide and its distinction, the red dot, has established itself as one of the most sought-after quality seals of good design. Receiving a red dot is regarded as a powerful instrument for companies and designers to effectively communicate their outstanding design achievements.
An important factor in the red dot design award's worldwide success is its international jury, which consists of renowned designers and design experts from all around the world who evaluate the submitted products according to set criteria and examine their design quality and functionality. Every year, the Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen selects a new combination of jurors to guarantee the highest possible objectivity in the evaluation of the winning products.
