Nokia Lumia phones win design award

MANILA, Philippines - Nokia was recently recognized at the prestigious awards event International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA).

The Nokia Lumia 800 and Nokia Lumia 900 both received the gold award in design innovation at the 2012 IDEA Awards.

The jury chose to reward these two products of the Lumia series for their distinctive contribution to smartphone design.

According to the jury, “in a market in which it is difficult to stand out, the Nokia Lumia brings a fresh perspective.”

The Nokia Lumia series carries an iconic form that is personal and inviting without sacrificing precision. Its construction is also very modern, efficient and well-crafted down to the smallest details.

“It’s a bold, gold-worthy effort, and I’m glad to see Nokia reclaim its design swagger,” said Jonah Becker, principal and creative director of One & Co.

IDEA is hosted annually by the Henry Ford Museum, official home of American ideas and innovation. Over 20 international design experts head to Dearborn, Michigan, for a two-day huddle that decides the winners.

Entries for the IDEA included diverse ideas and objects from bathroom furniture to bicycles, smartphones to sports gear, commercial products and student projects.
