FORMHERR - Winners of Red Dot Product Design Award 2013

The company Formherr Industriedesign, Rhino pro-users and Authorized Trainers, have been awarded with the Red Dot Product Design Award 2013. The winning project, a firefighting helmet commissioned by Dräger Safety AG, was challenging as it had to combine a number of serious aspects related to security and to the inclusion of innovative equipment, as well as wearing comfort and an aesthetic appearance. The whole helmet was completely modeled in Rhino until the designfreeze.
