Described as the first independent design competition in China, the China Good Design award was established in 2015 to bring outstanding works by local and overseas designers and companies to the attention of the huge China market. The programme is organised by Red Dot, which is well known globally for illustrious Red Dot Design Award.

The winners of China Good Design 2016 were announced on 30 October in Xiamen. A total of 158 works were recognised across 31 highly diverse categories, from Living Rooms and Bedrooms to Households, Interior Design, Fashion, lifestyle and accessories, Sports, Communication, and more. Following the same stringent judging standards that the Red Dot Design Award is famous for, this year’s entries were assessed by an international jury made up of independent industry experts such as Gordon Bruce (USA), Martin Darbyshire (UK), and Prof. Renke He (China).

Aeron Chair’s new shades, Nightfall and Jasper, arrive with a sense of quiet cohesion – no bells and whistles, no loud technicolour; just two timeless, perfectly versatile near-neutrals. But the new hues aren’t just about colour – and their significance is much more profound than their surface-level subtlety might suggest.
