Every year, the renowned Red Dot Award: Product Design honours products that impress with their exceptionally high design quality. The award is based on the decision of the Red Dot jury.
The experts assess the submissions based on the four basic principles of good design: the quality of function, the quality of seduction, the quality of use and the quality of responsibility.
In 2024, the Red Dot jury is made up of 39 experts from 20 countries on four continents. They cover various design disciplines and work as professors, consultants, journalists or industrial designers.
The entries came from 60 countries. The products were tested and evaluated by the jurors according to their respective type. The discussions between the experts are an important part of this process. They testify to the care with which the Red Dot jury considers and evaluates each product individually.
