Cyclone Lighting Wins GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Award

Mochi luminaire receives GOLD in the 2024 competition

Montreal, QC, September 26, 2024 – Cyclone Lighting (www.cyclonelighting.com), an established leader in the manufacture of outdoor luminaires, is pleased to announce its Mochi luminaire has won a GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Award in the 17th edition of the competition. It received GOLD CERTIFICATION in the Industrial Design/Lighting Fixture-Outdoor category.

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 international designers, architects, professors, entrepreneurs, and distinguished press. 

Mochi’s nature-inspired silhouette departs from traditional dome styling, bringing a softness to urban settings while delivering exceptional lighting performance. Its thoughtful design extends to its operating mechanism: a seamlessly integrated cast aluminum push-button latch provides one-handed access to the driver for easy replacement. 

 An advanced lighting system offers precise illumination well-suited for projects where safety is a priority, including city and residential streets, commercial buildings, transit, urban parks, waterfront pathways, or bike paths. Project designers can choose from more than 14 light distribution types, including backward optics. Additional versatility comes from the Orion light engine's orientable optics, which can be oriented by increments of 90°. Designers can combine two distribution types within a single light engine.

Mochi has received several accolades since its introduction, including a BrightStar Award and Red Dot Design Award.
