  Jm2¢ if you read the fine print on the Red Dot submission criteria with a business mind and not a desperate to be published/recognized designer mindset, it looks more like an award can be bought more than earned. Hence, it makes it easier to stomach all of the really bad designs that Red Dot awards. Remember, you pay them to submit your work, they keep it, and then get royalties. Does that sound about right? Anyone else echo this? Also, rationally, how present in our everyday lives are Red Dot objects? Not so many. They are nice, in a way, but not all that useful. Like Sharper Image stuff.

  I don't think the grey chair designers were deliberately trying to knock off the design of the red chair, even if it had influenced them. The grey chair is just too fussy- it is its quilting, side cushions and panels that grab one's attention, not its outline. The curvature of its silhouette is not constant. 

  By contrast, the red chair is all about the clean line. It appears to be the simplest version of itself. It is widest at the head rest area, not the base, lending it a welcoming aspect. These are fine attributes that the grey chair isn't even trying to emulate.
