Montreal, November 12, 2022 – Eureka (www.eurekalighting.com), an established leader in decorative lighting solutions, is pleased to announce that its Billie luminaire has won a 2022 GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Award in the 15th edition of the competition. Billie received GOLD CERTIFICATION in the Industrial Design/Lighting Fixture-indoor category.
The GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN Awards celebrate and reward the work of designers and architects who improve our quality of life and the built environment, as well as private and public clients who entrust them with their design needs. Created in Montreal in 2007, the original mission was to recognize the excellence of Quebec designers and architects who had distinguished themselves through exemplary practices. The competition was expanded to include international entries in 2020. A multidisciplinary jury of global judges includes leading professionals, prominent academics, and distinguished press.
Billie is a large-scale architectural luminaire with a distinctive hollow center. The internal geometry of the luminaire, including the top radius, is optimized to improve the light spread inside the shape. And a return around the bottom edge acts as a reflector, casting shadow-free light evenly onto the curved interior surface. As a result, Billie creates comfortable illumination for occupants below, regardless of mounting height.
Eureka Lighting received the award at a recent gala in Quebec City.
