Luce in movimento / Light on the move
LUCE in movimento, after the unexpected great
success of its first edition that collected a good 173 brilliant
projects, goes on in its original format of competition for young
designers. The concept of the competition can be resumed in two words
Light and Space; it is indeed meant to invite designers not only to
design lamps, but to project them already inserted in the
architecture of a given space, that will be suggested by the contest
itself.
The scope of the design contest is: new light.
The competition wont suggest the participants
either
styles or shapes or materials. It intends to let all these details free
to the phantasy and interpretation of each designer. The only given
datum of the contest is the surrounding in which they have to insert
their lighting fixtures; the spaces chosen for this second edition of
LUCE in movimento
are the
shops: points of sales of varied products, from boutiques to
jewellers shops, from telephony points to bakeries...
ORGANIZERS
The competition is organized by the italian
companies DiTre Group and Verbus Editrice, editor of the
architecturl and design magazine IQD Inside Quality Design. The
organizers thank the exhibitions that will cooperate at the
competition, giving adequate surfaces that will host the exposition of
the winning and selected projects in 2007.
SPONSORS AND SPECIAL AWARDS
Then, still remaining in the scope of the
competition i.e. to present projects of lamps, innovative in design
and technology, inserted in a shop the competition also gives young
