The German Design Award is one of the world's most prestigious awards, which aims to identify significant trends in design and present them to a wide audience. Every year, the competition gathers thousands of design, product and communication projects. An international committee of architects and interior designers selects and honors the best of them. This year, two of our luminaires were among the winners: FLYING BALL arc and AQfelt OVALL BALL. What did the jury particularly appreciate in them?
Awards in the "Excellent Product Design" category
The German Design Award has been awarded by the German Industrial Design Council continuously since 1953. The jury selects the most innovative projects that set trends in design and architecture, while fundamentally impacting the development of design not only in Germany, but also around the world.
