LightCycle is a sustainable light fixture design competition which was held during the 2009 State of Design Festival.
Using 1m of LED strip lighting and your imagination you have to create a light fixture that represents environmental sustainability. In keeping with the festival’s theme of Sampling the Future, entries will be judged for their esthetic and sustainable qualities – the interpretation of which is up to you. Shortlisted entries will be displayed in an exhibition at the Guildford Lane Gallery in Melbourne between 17-26 July.

The prizes? Very nice pendants from Dark, lamps from Erco, Glasshute Limburg, ECC, Oluce and Zumtobel.
The story began in 2007 with the inaugural LightCycle competition. Entrants were given a compact fluorescent lamp and a piece of cord and asked to create a sustainable light fixture.

The competition was organized by Electrolight, an independent lighting design consultancy based in Melbourne, directed by Paul Beale.
