| Kone Design signalization series wins Good Design award Finnish lift maker Kone has been awarded a 2009 Good Design award for its sleek Kone Design signalization series. The company is still the only elevator and escalator company to have ever received a Good Design award in 60 years. Founded in 1950, Good Design is renowned as one of the most recognized design awards program in the world. The awards are given by The Chicago Athenaeum and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies to highlight the best new designs and design innovations for products and graphics which were made between 2007 and 2009. Launched in 2009, the Kone Design signalization series offers contemporary design and durable technology, which is built to last for decades. By simply changing the color or design of the faceplate, the panel can be modified easily. The signalization panel also enables the integration of guiding information on the panel, which brings usability to a new level. It also allows localization to accommodate the specific functions and regulations of the different countries and regions. In 2008, Kone received its first ever Good Design award for its innovative Kone FourSeasons concept, which made Kone the first elevator and escalator company to ever receive such a prestigious award. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
