loewe freudeBelow are some of this year’s winners of the Red Dot Design Award, an internationally recognise and coveted prize among designers.  The ceremony was held in Essen Germany and covers seventeen categories. For this article I only picked those from the Bathrooms, spa and air-conditioning, Household and Kitchen, Entertainment Technology and Cameras and Living Rooms and Bedrooms categories.

Sunrise Electronic Basin Faucet
The Sunrise Electronic Basin Faucet basin faucetwon best design in the bathroom, spa and air-conditioning category; it reminds me of a Sting Ray or stealth bomber.  It was design by Stefano Ollino, Pingli Dong, Kai Lin and China and manufactured by Xiamen Renshui Industries. The right hand side of the Sunrise Electronic Basin Faucet holds the controls, a light-emitting touch control panel with easy to read intuitive images. The controls allow for precise adjustment of water temperature and quantity.
Digitecture Digital bath

Grohe Ondus Digitecture Digital bath
The Digital bath by Grohe Ondus won best design in the Bathrooms, spa and air-conditioning category. The Grohe Ondus Digitecture allows the preferred combination of water temperature and pressure to be programmed and, via an intuitive interface, be memorised at the press of a button for the next time of use. The Digital bath also has a pause button which stop the follow of water and when re-activate start the flow of water at the correct temperature. This is a very handy feature for when you are washing your hair; you don’t have to keep the water running.

The CBNes 6256 BioFresh Freshness Centre was design and manufactured by Liebherr-Hausgeräte GmbH of Germany and won best design in the Household and Kitchen category.

The freezer drawers are exposed and mounted on telescopic rails for easy access.  The user panel at the top of the Freshness Centre features the MagicEye control system, with functions that can be simply operated with a slight touch of a finger on the self-explanatory electronic panel, which according to the designers makes it convenient.
