Chelsom has achieved a design milestone by being awarded the Red Dot Award: Product Design, the most prestigious product design competition in the world, for its LED reading light, LED EYE.

The labour of love for the father and son team saw this design process completed within an 18-month period, a process that required infallible design, engineering and technological precision making the award win even more of an achievement. Will added: “We are of course truly honoured to receive this seal of quality for outstanding product design. We pride ourselves on our original designs and would like to thank everyone at the Red Dot Awards for their recognition.”
