Great opportunity for upcoming designers to take part in the Red Dot Award competition!
Red Dot Award: Product Design 2017 “Young Professionals Application Day” provides 50 free registration places
Only on 7 December 2016 for 24 hours, trained designers who have graduated within the past five years have the chance to apply for one of a total of 50 free registration places. The international design competition thus gives an opportunity to those starting out on their career to prove their abilities and be compared directly against established designers and major brands from the industry.
In addition to registration for the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2017, the 50 new talents will be supported with free measures if they win an award: The sought-after winners’ benefits include use of the Red Dot label for the award- winning product, exhibition of the product in the Red Dot Design Museum Essen and in the online presentation. Furthermore, the winners will be introduced in the Red Dot Design Yearbook, the reference work for contemporary design, thus benefiting from the PR service that goes hand in hand with the award.
The Red Dot jury comprises freelance designers, design professors and specialist journalists. The products submitted are assessed directly, live and in situ. The products are not in direct competition with each other. Instead, they are tested, discussed and assessed individually. The factors used to assess the products are functionality, ergonomics, longevity, self-explanatory quality and ecological compatibility, product periphery, formal quality, symbolic and emotional content. Only designs that win over the jury with their design quality are awarded a Red Dot.
Let’s schedule the 7th December in your agenda and be sure to have all you stuff ready to be registered.
Required documents are: a product description, information on the applicant and manufacturer, 1 to 5 product images and a copy of your degree certificate.
Notice that to register your product you need to sign in first and be sure to have your Red Dot account.
We suggest to spend some minutes to sign in and try a registration and see what is needed!
