Two Red Dot Design Awards for Eckstein Design
Award-winning design for Winkhaus blueEvo and Simeon Sim.LED 8000

In 2025, Eckstein Design was honored with two Red Dot Design Awards – for the electronic door lock system blueEvo by Winkhaus and the modular Sim.LED 8000 surgical light from SIMEON Medical. These awards recognize our ability to translate technical complexity into accessible, aesthetic, and user-friendly products.

blueEvo – A New Era of Access
With the blueEvo system, Winkhaus introduces a new generation of networked door locking – smart, secure, and clearly positioned. In close collaboration with Eckstein Design, we created a cohesive solution: from product form and graphical interface to brand communication.
A central focus was the balance of tradition and innovation – a design attitude reflected throughout the visual language. Details of our approach can be found in the blueEvo use case on our website.
This project is a strong example of our expertise in industrial design: form, interface, and engineering converge seamlessly.
Sim.LED 8000 – Lighting with Responsibility
For the new Sim.LED 8000, we partnered with SIMEON Medical to develop a surgical light fully tailored to the needs of medical staff. Priorities included intuitive operation, hygienic surfaces, and clearly legible controls – all critical in sensitive surgical environments.
The modular design merges technical innovation with a clean, functional aesthetic. It fits perfectly into our medical design expertise – a field where we unite complex requirements with ergonomic and visual clarity.
Let’s create together
Why Red Dot Is More Than Just an Award
The Red Dot Design Award is one of the most prestigious international distinctions in design. For us, it confirms our commitment to holistic design thinking – strategic, functional, and visually compelling.
Winning two awards demonstrates the breadth of our design approach – from high-tech medical innovation to smart building access systems
