Prestigious global design award recognizes a new approach to security that complements interior and architectural design.
i-PRO Co., Ltd., a global leader in professional security and public safety solutions, announced that its Spatial Integration Camera has received the prestigious “Red Dot: Best of the Best” distinction in the Red Dot Award: Design Concept 2026.
The award recognizes the camera concept’s innovative approach to security equipment, combining professional video protection with the design and character of the spaces where it is used.
Bringing Security Technology Into Architectural Spaces
Security cameras play an essential role in protecting people, property, and places. However, in environments where architecture and interior design are central to the experience, such as luxury boutiques, museums, hotels, and premium commercial spaces, security equipment can also influence the overall appearance of a space.
Developed around i-PRO’s design philosophy of creating safe and secure environments, the Spatial Integration Camera explores how professional security technology can become a natural part of its surroundings rather than simply being added to them.
Its original structure houses the camera unit within the body, creating a form that differs from conventional security cameras. Inspired by the integration of lighting and other architectural elements into interior spaces, the concept aims to complement its surroundings while retaining the functionality expected from professional video protection.
The result is a new design approach that brings together security, comfort, and aesthetics.
Recognized for Innovation and Thoughtful Design
The Red Dot Award is an internationally recognized design competition celebrating achievements across multiple design disciplines. Its Design Concept category highlights forward-looking concepts and prototypes that demonstrate the potential of future products and services.
The award notification letter stated:
“In evaluating design concepts, the jury not only assessed the quality of the design, but also devoted considerable attention to understanding the ideas behind each project. Throughout the judging process, the jury was impressed by the high level of innovation and the thoughtful application of technology.”
Makoto Terashima, Director of Design at i-PRO, said:
“We are honored to receive international recognition for our approach to bringing technology and design together. The Spatial Integration Camera reflects our belief that innovation is not only about what technology can do, but also about how it becomes part of people’s everyday environments. We will continue to explore new ideas and use design and innovation to address the evolving needs of our customers.”
