Lupax by Pooya Zoiee and Zohreh Fallah Wins Bronze A' Design Award in Lighting

Rotating Pendant Lamp Honored for Adaptive Illumination and Thoughtful Engineering in Lighting Products Design

COMO, CO, ITALY, July 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The A' Design Award has announced Lupax by Pooya Zoiee and Zohreh Fallah as a Bronze winner in the Lighting Products and Fixtures Design category. The A' Design Award is one of the world's most prestigious recognitions in design, and it is a highly respected and well-recognized honor within the field of lighting design. This recognition acknowledges Lupax as an outstanding example of good design, distinguished through a rigorous and impartial evaluation process. The award places the rotating pendant lamp among works noted for creativity, technical merit, and practical value. The recognition reflects careful consideration of both form and function in the realm of lighting products.

The A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures Design category holds relevance for designers, manufacturers, and end users seeking solutions that combine adaptability with refined aesthetics. Lupax responds to a growing interest in lighting that allows people to shape the atmosphere of a space according to need. By enabling users to adjust the spread and direction of illumination, the design aligns with contemporary expectations for interactive and human-centered products. Such adaptability supports varied settings, from focused work environments to calm, restful interiors. The recognition draws attention to how thoughtful design can serve everyday comfort and well-being.

Lupax is a rotatable pendant lamp built around a fixed central core, with movable wings that guide how light disperses across a room. When the panels are lifted upward, the lamp produces concentrated, indirect light with sharp shapes that suggest tension and drama. When turned downward, the wings create a soft, diffused glow that feels soothing and harmonious. The form remains intentionally minimal so that the act of adjusting the wings becomes the central feature of the experience. The dual wing rotation mechanism, allowing opposite movement while preserving function, represents a notable engineering achievement that balances elegance, function, and feasibility.

This recognition encourages Pooya Zoiee and Zohreh Fallah to continue exploring the intersection of design and engineering in future lighting projects. The award may inspire further development of adaptive products that invite meaningful interaction while expressing conceptual ideas. By demonstrating how a simple form can convey themes of balance and peace, Lupax sets a reference point for the designers' ongoing work. The honor serves as motivation to pursue continued innovation and refinement in product realization.
