Elle Deco International Design Awards: Lighting Design of the Year
AWARDS
Lee Broom's Eclipse Collection Wins EDIDA 2019 Award
The annual Elle Deco International Design Awards (EDIDA) ceremony is a prestigious event that recognizes excellence in the field--identifying and celebrating work that pushes boundaries, inspires others, and showcases originality.
Launched in 2003, the awards have been organized by all twenty-five of Elle Deco magazine's editors-in-chief working across an international network, each placing their votes to highlight the achievements of the world's top designers in thirteen different design categories. A few weeks ago, at the Salone del Mobile fair in Milan, this year's recipients were announced.
2019's winner in the Lighting Design category is Lee Broom's Eclipse collection!
Lee Broom--the enfant prodige of the British design scene--has conquered the world of millennials. It's safe to say that his time spent at drama school, his passion for fashion, and his friendship with Vivienne Westwood have made him into a creative mind with a distinct, eclectic soul. Through his eponymous brand, Broom releases expressive conceptual designs based on inspirations that range from reimagining the simple sphere to interpreting the universe's celestial vault.
The Eclipse design revolves around the theme of the intersection of two chrome-covered steel and opalescent glass discs. Linked as if in a chain, the two elements of pure geometric form playfully interact with the expressive strength of the reflective surfaces: by mirroring one another, they present all the magic of a bright jewel.
Lee Broom's Eclipse collection is available at LightForm in table, and pendant versions.
This year's win marks Lee Broom's second consecutive Elle Deco International Design Award. His first award came in 2018 for Best Tableware Design.
Congratulations to Lee Broom for this amazing--and well-deserved--accomplishment!
We had the pleasure of hosting Lee Broom in our Toronto showroom last year, for a conversation with Azure magazine then Editor-in-Chief Catherine Osborne. The event marked the launch of Lee Broom's latest lighting collection, OBSERVATORY, including the award-winning Eclipse collection. Want an invite to the next LightForm design event?
