Kalamazoo, MI - Landscape Forms, North American’s largest designer and manufacturer of site furniture, has received another 2010 GOOD DESIGN Award from The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies. This award joins a previous one from the same organizations presented earlier this year. The Green GOOD DESIGN Award was presented to Landscape Forms in October, 2010 for the same lighting products in the Metro40 Collection, Hi-Glo and Lo-Glo LED Lighting.
The Metro40 Collection of site furnishings was designed by BMW Group DesignworksUSA. Hi-Glo, a 12-foot pedestrian light and Lo-Glo, a 3-foot pathway light, feature LED cartridge technology that delivers energy efficiency, high performance, longevity and economy. Innovations in light color and reduced light pollution support the circadian cycle and human health. Both styles meet lighting requirements and help define identity in settings such as business districts, campuses and parks, or can be used as stand alone lighting.
The GOOD DESIGN program was founded in Chicago in 1950. It remains the oldest and most important Awards Program worldwide.
