Recently, there has been"The Oscars of design"The German iF Prize has announced the winners for 2024. Among the nearly 11,000 entries from 56 countries and regions around the world, BL3., a subsidiary of Higold Group0 sinks, Levia parasols, and Armonia outdoor furniture stand out and add a strong touch to the development of Chinese design.
Founded in 1954, the German IF Award is world-renowned for its "independent, rigorous and reliable" award concept, and its selection criteria not only focus on the visual achievement of products, but also focus on the realization of value in more top-level factors such as functionality and sustainability, and is a banner of global industrial design competitions. Higold Group has won the iF Award for five consecutive years since it won the iF Award for the first time in 2020, and has won a total of 12 iF Design Awards so far, becoming a new force in Chinese design that cannot be ignored on the international stage, allowing the world to witness a different "Created in China".
The fusion of rational thinking about function and perceptual understanding of experience has achieved a unique functional aesthetic of Higold, which reminds people of the Ten Commandments of Dieter Rams, the father of German industrial design, who is regarded as the benchmark by the design world, "good design makes a product useful", and this conceptual resonance seems to be a dialogue between design souls across time and space. Perhaps it is this rich and vital product design art that has made the world's three top design awards favor the products of Higold Group for many years. The three products of Higold Group that won the 2024IF Award have once again become the perfect footnotes of Higold's golden rules of design.
Higold BL3By reconstructing the operation link of the kitchen cleaning hub, the 0 sink improves the space value and practical value of the kitchen by 1m in a three-dimensional way, providing a new integrated solution for the increasingly small Chinese kitchen. The addition of a small rib strip makes it possible to integrate the three core functions of washing, draining and cutting in the preparation process, which not only reduces the moving line to the shortest, but also greatly reduces the housework of cleaning the "battlefield" of the countertop, so that high efficiency has also become one of the keys to unlocking the immersive cooking experience; The combination of the bottom of the ramp groove and the right rear sewer achieves a 3D mechanical diversion with a 30% increase in drainage speed on the one hand, and a rear sewer system that can greatly release the storage space under the sink on the other hand. Although everything is hidden in the minimalist and refined texture design, users can still perceive Higold BL3 in daily use0 Dense details and temperature in the sink.
The purity and aura of Higold's design aesthetics are more stunningly presented in the Armonia series of outdoor furniture. Textured teak and hand-woven rope form the original background of the Armonia series of outdoor furniture, while the contour lines and the spatial structure of the virtual and real space echo the sense of modernity, and the contradictory dualistic design language constructs an outdoor leisure space full of story and imagination. Avant-garde design is not only born for visual excellence, but also subverts the traditional attitude of outdoor furniture. The irregularly shaped modules make it possible to use free and diverse component functions and component combinations, whether it is a table with storage function, a sofa and table that can be swapped on demand, or a product matrix of different scales according to different outdoor space scenes for leisure and vacation, Higold Armonia series of outdoor furniture is a seamless partner for users to enjoy an unbounded life.
As a veteran player who easily won the gold medal in the health and leisure category of the 2023 Canton Fair CF Awards, the Levia parasol regained its championship strength. Breaking through the traditional parasol functional framework, the Higold Levia parasol creates a three-dimensional use scene through the patented design of 360-degree free rotation and the stepless lifting function, allowing users to freely adjust the direction and height of the umbrella surface without moving the parasol, easily creating a burden-free outdoor vacation experience, and also raising the ceiling of the parasol category experience.
Let Chinese design tell Chinese stories well, and a number of Chinese companies represented by Higold are still on the way.
