Hofats win two German Design Awards
 

The German Design Awards are the international premier prize from the German Design Council. Their goal is to discover, showcase and recognise unique design trends.

 

The awards were started in 2012 and are amongst the worlds most renowned design awards and enjoy a prestigious reputation that extends well beyond specialist circles.  

 

The design awards set the highest standards in terms of selecting their winners, in the nomination process expert committees of the German Design Council only invite those prodcuts that stand out from the competition on account of their design excellence.  

 

Out of 5000 submissions from 60 countries, Hofats has won the 2021 award for the Bowl and Spin. 

 

Judges comments 

Bowl - Firepit & BBQ
Graceful, multifaceted and eye-catching, the product appears both rugged and refined with its minimalist stand nestling a rounded enamel-coated body.  Clever, interchangeable accessories and simple usability result in a product that can be used as both a fireplace and BBQ in a number of possible ways.  

 

Spin - Tabletop Fire Lantern 
The product appears effortlessly slender, stylish and arresting with a choice of base to extend use for in and outdoor applications.  Clever utilisation of form in the metal base results in a twisted flame that is encapsulated and framed by a thin, resilient glass tube, which creates a visually enchanting effect.
