Already acclaimed in the architecture and design scenes, the FritsJurgens concealed sprung pivot door system has now been formally honoured, taking home the 2017 Red Dot Award for Product Design.
It was FritsJurgens fully concealed sprung pivot door system that took home the gold after several days of the Red Dot judging panel assessing thousands of products from all over the world. The Dutch brand, distributed in Australia through Bellevue Architectural, was recognised for having created a product with an outstanding high quality design and appeal, earning them the internationally sought-after seal of quality.
