A-Light Wins Six GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Awards
The GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Awards is an international competition that celebrates the excellence and talent of creative professionals and firms who have distinguished themselves through exemplary practice. Created in Montreal in 2007, the original mission was to recognize the excellence of Quebec designers and architects. The competition was expanded to include international entries in 2020. A multidisciplinary jury of global judges includes leading professionals, prominent academics, and influential press members.
The Aloft family of linear pendants was expanded to include Aloft 3D laser-printed metallic joiners. This allows the creation of impactful, elaborate lighting arrangements when used with Aloft luminaires. Designers can choose from eight preconfigured patterns or work with A-Light's Design Assist team to produce unique shapes and sizes. The suspended luminaires create visual impact in a range of sizes for a wide variety of spaces.
Angle was designed for high-ceiling applications and large spaces, including auditoriums and educational institutions, airports and transit outlets, and natatoriums. The high-performance luminaires feature an enhanced indirect asymmetric distribution that projects light up to the ceiling and then reflects down to the surface below. Lighting designers can expect a light output of up to 12,151 lumens per foot.
Mira provides an asymmetric distribution that directs an even illumination towards ceiling and walls, minimizing hotspots and shadows. The luminaires are designed to use both ceiling and wall surfaces to reflect sufficient light into a space to functionally illuminate desks and floors indirectly. Designers can specify wall throw, ceiling throw, or a combination of both in the same run to deliver the right amount of light on a surface. A combined wall and ceiling wash offers up to 2302 delivered lumens per foot.
