Cyclone Lighting Wins 2025 Red Dot Award for Valenza

Cyclone Lighting is pleased to announce its Valenza luminaire has received a 2025 Red Dot Design Award for Product Design. Valenza’s straight geometric lines are offset and softened by organically inspired rounded edges.

Viewed head-on, the assertive V shape makes a strong impression, with a look that modernizes urban settings. The luminaire’s light engine, known for its excellent performance and durability, is equipped with fully sealed, optically engineered, injection-molded acrylic lenses with an IP66 rating for enhanced performance and durability. Valenza luminaires are offered with more than thirteen distribution types, including symmetrical, asymmetrical, and crosswalk options. House shield and backward optics options are also available for added flexibility, creating a customized light source that optimizes illumination management.
