About .design
.design is a generic top-level domain. IANA lists its registry operator as Registry Services, LLC of Tempe, Arizona, which publishes its policies as GoDaddy Registry, and records its addition to the root zone database on December 18, 2014. The registry describes .design as a domain for designers and creative professionals.
According to the registry, anyone can register a .design name worldwide on a first-come, first-served basis, with no special eligibility requirements. Under its registration policy, names are registered or renewed in one-year increments for up to ten years in total, and the registry may set higher-than-standard registration and renewal fees for names it designates. The registry prevents a move to another registrar during the first 60 days after a name is registered or transferred.
