if Product Design Award 2014

For 60 years, iF has stood for the perfect combination of design and business. What began in 1953 as a “special exhibition of form-fit industrial products” at the Hannover trade fair grounds has today evolved into an internationally operating design center headquartered in downtown Hannover with exhibitions worldwide. The original association, iF Industrie Forum Design e.V., is supported by iF International Forum Design GmbH, which acts as the organizer of all iF competitions, especially the three main competitions: the iF Product Design Award, iF Communication Design Award, and iF Packaging Design Award. These iF Design Awards reflect current trends in design and the economic value of well-designed products.

The award ceremony took place on February 28, 2014 as part of a festive event. Afterwards, elneos five and elneos connect were exhibited in a special exhibition from October 4, 2014 to February 15, 2015 in the middle of the new HafenCity. The design metropolis of Hamburg offers a particularly attractive attraction for the media and professional world as well as for the public interested in design and architecture.
