Eker Design and Hydrolift honored with the Award for Design Excellence
The prestigious Award for Design Excellence rewards the most innovative and courageous companies and designers working together to create products and services through the methodical use of design.
Awards were handed out on Wednesday 18 April in Oslo during the Design Day, an annual event organized by the Norwegian Design Council where industry and designers are praised for successful innovation and great design.
The idea behind the model S-28 was to create an “all weather boat” without compromising with the Hydrolift image as a manufacturer of open sports boats in the premium segment. This is the fifth award for Eker Design in cooperation with Hydrolift.

The Norwegian chef Ørjan Johannessen was March 21 elected gold medal winner of the prestigious Bocuse d' Or Europe 2012. His gold-winning presentations has been designed in close relation with Eker Design.
