Red Dot Award for the Brumberg TUBIC

Sundern, March 2019.After the Red Dot award for the LED surface-mounted ceiling luminaire QUBIC, the Sauerland family-owned company Brumberg has now convinced the jury once again. Thanks to its minimalist design and the interplay of form and function, the Brumberg TUBIC was able to win the internationally recognized Red Dot Award. In the development of the TUBIC's design language, Brumberg again collaborated with designer Alexander Grimm, who also designed the QUBIC. "Winning the Red Dot Award again shows us that we are on the right track. Lighting efficiency, design and sustainability are topics that are significant for purchasing decisions. With products such as TUBIC, we are setting appropriate impulses. We are naturally very pleased to receive this international award," emphasizes Johannes Brumberg, owner and managing director.

Professor Dr. Peter Zec, initiator and CEO of the Red Dot Awards: "The Red Dot winners are pursuing the right design strategy. They have recognized that good design and commercial success go hand in hand. The award from the critical Red Dot jury documents their high design quality and points the way forward for their successful design policy."

Light, function and aesthetics in harmony
The central theme was the interplay of form and function. A luminaire with a minimalist design that recedes in the room and with a light emission that gives the luminaire a special radiance. The shape was quickly found. A simple cylindrical luminaire body with a matt white surface. During the development process, the idea arose to have the luminaire shine not only directly, but also indirectly. A light gap was created between the luminaire and the ceiling, which makes the TUBIC appear to float freely in the room (does not apply to the TUBIC LED recessed luminaire). The effect is impressive - the luminaire convinces with form, function and light aesthetics.

Application areas
A luminaire with a wide range of applications, because the light and luminaire properties of Tubic are suitable for productive work as well as for living and relaxing and for accent lighting in hotels and stores. Perfect for different room concepts.
