Metropolis Announces the Winners of the Next Generation Design Competition
May 2, 2007
Metropolis magazine has announced the winners of their fourth annual "Next Generation" Design Competition. Responding to the competition’s theme of "energy", the San Francisco-based firm Civil Twilight was awarded $10,000 for their project, Lunar Resonant Street Lamps.
The re-engineered lighting system has an ultra sensitive photo-cell that responds to the brightness of the night sky, turning on and dimming as needed, cutting down both on unnecessary light pollution and energy consumption.
