The Red Dot Design Award is one of the most prestigious design competitions in the world. The competition is divided into three disciplines in order to be able to properly assess the diversity in the field of design:
The Red Dot Design Award looks back on almost 70 years of history: in 1955, a jury came together for the first time to assess the best designs of the time. In the 1990s, Red Dot CEO Professor Dr Peter Zec developed the name and brand of the award. Since then, the coveted “Red Dot” distinction has been the internationally recognised seal of outstanding design quality. The award winners are presented in the yearbooks, museums and online.
The Red Dot Award: Brands & Communication Design recognises outstanding projects, designers and agencies. Each year, the competition invites creatives and companies to submit their realised campaigns and projects to be evaluated by an international jury. Winners are awarded either the Red Dot, the Red Dot: Best of the Best or the Red Dot: Grand Prix.
In 2025, submissions from 58 countries were evaluated across 18 categories.
To do so, 30 jurors came together in person to assess each project live and individually – based on defined criteria and in light of their socio-cultural background, professional focus and design expertise.
As diverse as the projects may be, they are united by their design quality – now also confirmed by an internationally recognised and independent panel of experts.
The Red Dot Design Museum Essen is the world’s largest exhibition of contemporary design, featuring around 2,000 exhibits across more than 4,000 square metres. Located in the former boiler house of the Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – it merges contemporary design with striking industrial architecture. The museum opened in 1997 and continues a tradition that began in 1955 with the „Ständigen Schau formschöner Industrieerzeugnisse“. On display are products and projects that have received a distinction in the Red Dot Design Award. Regularly changing exhibitions make the museum a vibrant space where design quality can be experienced firsthand.
