Back again for the 7th consecutive year, the VENETIAN SMART LIGHTING AWARD is promoted by Luce in Veneto to reward the best lighting products and solutions made by companies – members of Luce in Veneto and located in the Veneto region.
The structure of the 2022 categories will reward, in addition to the creative ability of companies in adapting to the needs of the contract, the ability to design new products to be launched on the market, an approach oriented towards eco-sustainable production and innovative and smart solutions for smart cities.
Also, in this edition, the jury is composed of lighting designers and professionals linked to the world of light, who will evaluate not only the aesthetic aspects of the candidate products but also their functionality as 360-degree lighting fixtures.

Un sistema di lampade studiate per il mondo del contract. Disponibile in sette versioni, rileva la propria natura quando viene aggregata in composizioni multiple.
Sistema elegante, flessibile, discreto o caratterizzante a seconda delle scelte progettuali e declinabile in maniere differenti e adattabile a diversi contesti ambientali.
Il cerchio, quando oggetto luminoso, ha sempre un fascino particolare. Trasparenza e leggerezza caratterizzano questo sistema
Un ripensamento della forma classica della sospensione multibraccio, riletta con linguaggio e materiali contemporanei di qualità, con reminiscenze del design degli anni Cinquanta.
Tre forme solide (cilindro, sfera, cono) creano una lampada a sospensione dalla forte personalità. l’alluminio e l’utilizzo dei LED consente una buona dissipazione e una lunga durata delle sorgenti utilizzate.
Una lampada versatile che utilizza il vocabolario della finitura matta ovvero non lucida o brillante e dunque morbida e invitante grazie ai cavi in tessuto ed al metallo spazzolato. Interessante il contrasto con il fascio di luce diffuso e brillante all’estremità di ogni cono sospeso”
L’utilizzo di materiale fonoassorbente, di colori vivaci e l’integrazione di sorgenti LED bianchi, o con RGB, danno rilevanza a questa applique nata nell’ambito di un progetto di riqualificazione di un reparto di pediatria.
Il suono e la luce condividono diverse leggi fisiche e un sistema che agisce su entrambi permettendo all’utente di adeguarle alle proprie esigenze è molto interessante. Il tema dei pannelli fonoassorbenti viene risolto in chiave di linguaggio, forme e cromie domestiche, attente alla dimensione della versatilità funzionale.
La tecnologia produttiva della stampa 3D trova una applicazione coerente nel prodotto con soluzioni che valorizzano le potenzialità della sorgente luminosa.
Un prodotto versatile a batteria scaturito dalla stampa 3D. Senza bisogno di stampi si trasforma in una lampada davvero affascinante.
Interessante e riuscita la realizzazione dell’apparecchio la cui realizzazione, con uno stampo tradizionale sarebbe stata estremamente complessa e costosa.
La tecnologia wireless al servizio della luce. Un apparecchio camaleontico per illuminare eventi all’aperto, si trasforma in lampada da tavolo e da terra; addirittura personalizzabile.
Una forma lineare, semplice e funzionale, declinata in chiave sistemica con possibilità di diverse applicazioni e combinazioni, è unita con una soluzione tecnica pertinente e innovativa.
Un sistema personalizzabile frutto della ricerca tecnologica ed applicativa tutta italiana
