Seoul, Korea (March 16, 2011) – Frostdale’s nanogrid wireless light switches have been awarded the “red dot” seal of quality by a highly respected panel of experts at the 2011 red dot award, one of the world’s most renowned international product competitions.
Each switch features a unique, wave-shaped button design inspired by the lines in traditional Korean architecture and clothing. The switches also feature built-in energy monitoring and temperature sensors making them capable of supporting advanced home automation solutions.
“As always, our jury cast a very careful eye over the products submitted. Design quality has asserted itself clearly in the judging process, with genuine and new creative solutions also being rewarded. Both of these criteria are not just yardsticks for good design, but also for the potential for success on the market. This potential is increased several times over by the targeted use of our renowned design award”, says Professor Dr. Peter Zec, the initiator of the red dot design award. This year, designers and companies from 60 countries entered 4,433 products in the red dot award: product design.
You can experience the nanogrid wireless light switch first hand: together with the other prize-winning products in the category of interior design will be on display from 5 July to 1 August 2011 in the exhibition “Design on stage – winners red dot award: product design 2011” in the red dot design museum at the world heritage site of the Zeche Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex in Essen.
