Artika Slim Control part of the Compasso d’Oro Catalogue
The hydraulic hinge for semi-vertical refrigerated cabinets Artika Slim Control becomes part of the Compasso d’Oro Catalogue 2022, the oldest and the main world design award.
The Award
Born with the mission of highlighting the quality and value of the Italian design, the Compasso D’Oro Award is an idea of Gio Ponti, one of the main Italian designers and architects. The award was given to ADI which take care of the organization, the integrity and the impartiality.
The award is given after an accurate preselection done by experts, designers, critics, journalists and Adi members. The goal is to identify, year after year, the best Italian design products published in the Adi Design Index. After the selection, the products become part of the Compasso d’Oro Catalogue, being part of the Italian design excellence. Only a few of them will be awarded with Compasso D’Oro, Compasso d’Oro Career Award and Honourable Mention.
The hinge
ARTIKA SLIM CONTROL is an ambidextrous hydraulic hinge specially made for semi-vertical refrigerated devices. Its capability of controlling the closing speed and easing the opening process of the door had surprised the jury. After an accurate selection started with Adi Design Index, Artika Slim Control becomes part of the Catalogue 2022, among the best Italian design products.

The event took part on June 20th, for the first time in the Adi Design Museum.
The award has been given to 20 products together with designers and producers in the Milan square which the ADI Design Museum looks out over and which has been named in honour of the award. In addition to these prizes, Career Awards were presented to 9 Italian and 3 international personalities who are important points of references in the evolution of the world of design. 292 products were put forward for this edition, preselected by the ADI Design Index 2020 and 2021 and presented to a jury.
