Eureka Wins 7 GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Awards for Lighting
Part of Acuity Brands’ Lighting and Controls portfolio, Montreal-based Eureka Lighting has received seven awards in the 17th edition of the GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Awards, all in the Product/Industrial Design/Lighting Fixture-Indoor category.
The GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Awards is an international competition, created in Montreal, that celebrates the excellence and the talent of creative professionals and firms who have distinguished themselves through exemplary practice. The Awards create visibility and promotional opportunities for its partners and winners and bring them professional and international recognition.
Eureka’s Joli and Marro series received Gold certification, Frank, Tangram-Essential, and Tangram-Cut won in the Silver level, and Elke and Tangram-Tact were recognized with a Bronze certification.
Joli, Marro, and Elke pendants feature rich colors, large-scale formats, and simple shapes — all with acoustic properties. The trio’s aesthetics were inspired by the Color Field painting movement of the 1950s, where artists experimented with the power of color in large areas.
The Frank series features a thermos-formed shade made from sound-absorbing recycled PET felt that increases acoustic comfort in a space. Measuring 24.5″ diameter x 16.7″ high, the shade is available in a palette of 22 colors.
The Tangram family is defined by bold 4″-wide straps that can be configured into various geometries using spacers that pull in or push out the straps to create striking shapes. A flat power cable is fully concealed inside each strap.
Tangram-Essential is distinguished by a honeycomb or prismatic lens. The 8-inch cylinder provides excellent visual impact at the base of the 4″-wide straps, which can be configured and suspended in multiple ways. Tangram-Essential brings geometric interest to lobbies and informal lounges or meeting areas.
Precision machining from a solid glass block gives the Tangram-Cut pendant its striking, jewel-like feel. Internal frosting and a distinctive concave bottom help to diffuse light from the 8″-diameter luminaire. The unique aesthetic is suited to luxurious environments such as high-end hospitality settings.
Warm, soft curves define Tangram-Tact. A COB light source, deeply recessed within the 12″-diameter housing, reduces glare and increases user comfort. Precision light control can highlight specific areas such as seating areas, pathways, or corridors.
