Cyclone Lighting’s Lupa & Valenza Receive Product Innovation Awards

Jan 5, 2026 - Cyclone Lighting's Lupa & Valenza Receive Product Innovation Awards

January 5, 2026

Cyclone’s Lupa & Valenza Exterior Luminaires Both Recognized by Architectural Products Magazine

Cyclone Lighting is pleased to announce its Lupa and Valenza luminaires have each received a Product Innovation Award (PIA) from Architectural Products magazine.

The PIA program was created to celebrate the ground-breaking products, systems, and materials that help architects achieve new levels of creativity or performance in their design. Each entry is reviewed by an esteemed panel of practising architects; manufacturers of products and systems are awarded based on attributes, qualities, functionality, or performance beyond industry standards.

Lupa features a disk shape, no visible hardware, and a seamlessly integrated arm to bring a contemporary feel and refined look to public spaces. Lupa was intentionally designed with lower pole heights to contribute to a feeling of security. Yet, its light engine produces a gentler, more comfortable gradient for a softer look and glare-free environment. Lupa’s light engine also features the latest ink technology in its diffuser to deliver broader, more even light distribution.

Valenza’s straight geometric lines are offset and softened by organically inspired rounded edges. Seen from the side, its slender, subtle silhouette virtually disappears, belying the quality and strength of its illumination. Viewed head-on, the assertive V shape makes a strong impression, with a look that modernizes urban settings. Valenza’s light engine, known for its excellent quality, is equipped with fully sealed, optically engineered, injection-molded acrylic lenses with an IP66 rating for enhanced performance and durability.
