COVID-19 may have disrupted lives, but not the creativity of designers. As Red Dot Design Award's Asia president, Ken Koo puts it, "Our way of life, the way we connect with our families and friends, how we work and play has changed and is still evolving. Change is not always bad. This state of the world will stimulate our creativity into overdrive."
He adds, "Innovations, new concepts of living and doing will be one of the dominant forces to help us adapt."
Each year, the design institution hands out awards for concepts that will make a change to lives. The competition is open to both students and professionals. This year saw 4,170 entries from 52 nations, of which 281 projects were awarded.
