The red dot awards presentation, honoring the Tupperware design team will take place on June 29th at 6:00 PM in the Essen Opera House, the Aalto Theatre.
For more than 60 years, Tupperware has pursued a unique design philosophy, which has been embraced all across the globe. Tupperware is universally recognizable, with 90% brand awareness. The simple, colorful products, accompanied by the signature seals, have become characteristic of the Tupperware brand, and follow a similar iconographic style since company founder; Earl Silas Tupper created the first designs in the 1950s. Tupperware(R) products have revolutionized daily routines -- the concept is as simple as it is ingenious; its design has unparalleled potential. Tupperware, headquartered in Orlando, Florida is an international direct sales company and is sold in more than 100 countries.
"For decades, Tupperware has been developing functional products with practical value, using simple but nevertheless ingenious, and definitely distinctive design," says Professor Dr. Peter Zec, initiator of the red dot design award and senator of the international umbrella organisation of design, Icsid, explaining the selection of the design team of the year. "With the typical Tupperware design, the company has managed to give ingenious ideas an appropriate form for many years. Tupperware's success story is an example of continuous innovative potential, which has been shaping our daily lives for generations. For this achievement we are honouring the Tupperware Design Team with the highest distinction that exists in the design world."
On June 29, Susan Perkins and representatives of the Tupperware Design Team, will come to Essen to receive the "Radius" touring cup as a symbol of their "red dot: design team of the year" award on behalf of the team. The "Radius" will be passed on by Michael Laude, chief designer of the previous year's winner, the Bose Corporate Design Center.
