HeadHat Delta Gold award winner 2013
5 de July 2013
In addition to the Delta Gold 2013 (Barcelona, Spain), four months ago it was also awarded the prestigious Red Dot Design Award 2013 (Essen, Germany).
HeadHat is a composite system of hanging lamps using shades (Hats) of differing sizes and materials that multiply the uses of an ingenious light capsule (Head). The first five models are made with ceramic and aluminium shades.
An international jury (Johanna Agerman Ross, Tomás Alonso, Valérie Bergeron, Joseph Foraker, Robert Punkenhofer, Viviana Narotzky and Mike Zancan) chose Santa & Cole’s HeadHat system for the 2013 Delta Gold from a shortlist of 47 finalists:
For its good resolution; because it is a simple, honest and flexible system that takes LED lighting one step further and brings warmth to this type of lighting. For its minimalist design, which uses a classic, elegant language to incorporate new technology. Furthermore, it is made from few components, revealing the sustainable thinking behind the product, and resulting in a smart form of production.
The winners were announced on 27 June in Barcelona at the ceremony of the Delta Industrial Design Awards, the longest running and most prestigious in Spain, held as part of the 3rd Fadfest. It is the ultimate recognition for one of Santa & Cole’s new Indoor new products, and follows on from the Red Dot Design Award 2013 given to the system in Essen in February of this year.
This is the first time that a product designed by the Santa & Cole team for the Indoor collection has been awarded the Delta Gold (the highest Delta award, by invitation only). However, it is not the first gold prize winner in the catalogue, which includes Miguel Mila’s famous TMC lamps, and NAGOYA by Ferran Freixa.
