In order to professionally evaluate the diversity in the field of design, the Red Dot Design Award is divided into three disciplines:
1. product design
2. communication design
3. design concept
The renowned design award is one of the largest design competitions in the world. In 1955, a jury met for the first time to evaluate the best designs of the day. In the 1990s, Red Dot CEO Professor Dr. Peter Zec developed the name and brand of the award. Since then, the coveted Red Dot award has been the internationally recognised seal of approval for outstanding design quality.
