Award ceremonies x 2
Last week was amazing! We participated in not only one but two award ceremonies!
The award ceremony for Hemljus Design price was held at Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair for the second year and this year we won with the series Ohm!
The jury consisted of:
– Kai Piippo, Lighting designer and design manager at ÅF Lighting
– Ulrika Gabrielsson Kantermo, Product range manager at Norrmalms El
-Mikael Castanius, CEO Hemljus.
The motivation for the winner of the Hemljus Design Award 2020 reads:
“With a timeless design you have created a nice addition to the range. With its clean, sober shapes, the product range fits in most environments. Thanks to the great material selection, the series is characterized by an exclusive sense of craftsmanship and tradition. A future bestseller. “
Big thanks to both Hemljus and the jury for the honour!
A few days after the award ceremony in Stockholm, it was time for the award ceremony of the German Design Award 2020 where Ohm won the GOLD award in the product group ”Lighting”. In front of hundreds of spectators, together with other extremely talented companies and designers, we were awarded the prize together with Kauppi & Kauppi, which is responsible for the design of the series.
Motivation of the jury
The weatherproof IP44 Ifö Ohm luminaire series not only impresses with its clear, timelessly elegant design, which creates a beautiful silhouette, but also with its versatility in indoor and outdoor use. Constructed from a cylindrical, gently rounded porcelain body inspired by classic ceramic insulators and sockets and a shade of opal or clear glass as a counterpart, the luminaires have a pleasant, sleek appearance. The high-quality craftsmanship, which can be seen in the series and which can also be felt thanks to the ceramics used, is impressive.
A series of luminaires, cleanly designed down to the last detail, which interprets classic Scandinavian design in a modern way, which produces a beautiful, pleasant light and which blends harmoniously into many environments and living styles, whether as wall, ceiling, façade or table luminaires. These luminaires have what it takes to become a new classic.
Ohm has received several awards for its design, and we are humbly grateful
and very happy for each and every one of them.
