Venetian Smart Lighting Award 2021 edition

24 September 2021

The award that the Luce in Veneto dedicates to the best products and solutions presented by companies in the lighting sector

 

Back again for the 6th consecutive year, the competition aims to enhance the search for creativity and reward innovation in decorative lamps, lighting fixtures, lighting products and home automation solutions, as well as promote companies and activities in the Veneto region, helping to keep the name of Italian style high in the world. Having become a coveted recognition in the world of lighting, one of the sectors of excellence of Italian manufacturing, also this year the award involved a jury composed of leading figures like lighting designers, personalities linked to the world of light, architecture, design and teachers from the academic world: Federico Galluzzi, Stefania Minnella, Alberto Bassi, Carlo Piemonte around the president of the Jury Susanna Antico.

The award ceremony took place on 15th July, in the occasion of the gala dinner in the frame of the historic Villa Cà Marcello di Levada di Piombino Dese (Italy), one of the most beautiful examples of Venetian Villa in Palladian style dating back to the first half of the 1500s. After the reduced edition of 2020, this year the categories have been renewed to adapt to the evolution of the lighting sector. The new structuring aims to reward the creative ability of companies to adapt to the needs of the contract, to the design capacity for new products to be launched in the market, to the ability to innovate also in the production of advanced components.

Thanks to the collaboration with the sponsors HP and Nuovamacut, the finalist companies of the contest organized for the category “Best component for smart lighting – focus 3D printing” had the opportunity to print the candidate accessories/prototypes, thus demonstrating the potential of 3D printing also for the lighting industry. The “Special prize: best lighting application” is intended for companies of the 7 industrial clusters partners of the European project BRILLIANT operating in the lighting, furniture and construction sector. The companies of these clusters have nominated particularly innovative lighting products/solutions for smart home, smart building or smart furniture applications. During the evening, the project was presented highlighting the possibility to activate exchanges between companies, clusters and research centers at the European level starting from 2021.

The products selected by the jury as winners are:

  • CDLED, by the Karboxx company in the category “Best decorative lamp for contract use”
  • ICONIC CHANDELIER, by Elesi Luce in the category “Best decorative design lamp”
  • MORSE, by the company Elesi Luce in the category “Best Special Purpose Lamp”, e TRIAL by the company Atena Lux as “Special Mention”
  • COD 1820, by Multiforme in the category “Best component for smart lighting – focus 3D printing”
  • SURO, by the company Lym in the category “Special Prize: Best Lighting Application”

 

In the afternoon of the same day was held a webinar in collaboration with UL as an important training moment for local companies on the new regulations for the lighting sector after Brexit.
