HS HWASUNG announced on the 30th that it won the grand prize in the communication category at the 2025 Red Dot Design Award.
HS HWASUNG has swept the 'Red Dot Design Award' and the 'iF Design Award,' two of the three major design awards in the world. HS HWASUNG is the first mid-sized construction company in Korea to win both design awards simultaneously.
Founded in 1955, the Red Dot Design Award is a global design competition representing Germany. It selects the best designs each year by comprehensively evaluating aesthetics, innovation, functionality, and technology across various fields such as products, brands, and communication. It is considered one of the top three design awards in the world, along with the German 'iF Design Award' and the American 'IDEA.'
HS HWASUNG began actively participating in international design competitions last year. In just two years, it achieved a total of five awards at the iF Design Award and the Red Dot Design Award. Notably, at the iF Design Award, it won three awards in its first entry last year. This February, it also succeeded in winning the grand prize in the communication category for the second consecutive year.
Korea's design competitiveness is also noticeable. HS HWASUNG has been selected a total of 15 times with 23 works at the 'Good Design Award' organized by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy.
The 'HS HWASUNG CI' that received the grand prize at this Red Dot Award is a newly renewed corporate identity reflecting the company's vision and philosophy after changing its previous name 'Hwaseong Industries' to 'HS HWASUNG' for global market expansion.
HS HWASUNG has intricately incorporated its corporate direction into its design language, which is based on safety—an essential element of the construction industry—trust, a future-oriented attitude through innovation, and the provision of flexible solutions reflecting customer lifestyles. The brand's main color, red, maintains a strong brand image while inheriting the visual assets of the existing CI and adds a modern and global sense through elegant harmony with achromatic colors.
Park Jin-pil, Head of Team at HS HWASUNG, said, "We will continue to lead new residential environments and lifestyles through the development of differentiated products centered on customers and practical, future-oriented designs."
