The new Rimowa Design Prize is launching in collaboration with 15 universities, celebrating both student innovation and German design
The distinctive grooved luggage design adorning Rimowa’s ‘Cabin Classic’ suitcase first appeared on the scene in the 1950s. As the purveyor of such an iconic piece of hardware, the brand is well-equipped to be hosting a celebration of design minds.
The Rimowa Design Prize – launching its first chapter from October 2022 to April 2023 – is a collaboration with 15 top design universities. Each will be offering its students the opportunity to showcase work around their interpretation of the theme ‘mobility’.
Looking back at the depth of German design’s past is a major aspect of the prize, and the luggage connoisseur is acting as a bridge between now and then. CEO of Rimowa Hugues Bonnet-Masimbert highlights the importance of ‘supporting and nurturing the next generation who will be shaping the future legacy of German design’.
Through a jury comprising Alexandre Arnault, Hugues Bonnet-Masimbert, Manuel Goller, Gesa Hansen, Mateo Kries, Julia Läufer, Mike Meiré, Julius Wiedemann, the competition will award the winning participants with prizes of €20,000 , €10,000 and three prizes of €5,000 . Additionally, Rimowa will offer a mentorship programme , facilitating the first steps of a new generation of designers.
