OCL Wins 2021 LIT Design Award

Dec 1, 2021

OCL is excited to announce that Petals has been chosen for a 2021 LIT Design Award in the Pendant Lighting category.

Inspired by the natural beauty and elegance of a flower in full bloom, Petals intentionally mimics the subtle nuance of real flower petals in sunlight with the way the light softly glows and gradates across the petals.

This fixture is equipped with arced petals that are sleek and curved, sparking organic inspiration for composition of the space. The sweeping curve of the petals joins the central hub, pulling the viewer in visually and creating an almost mesmerizing, calming focal point. Soft, comfortable materials and nature-inspired forms combine to soften some of the harsh industrial materials and finishes common in commercial interiors.

Petals works outstandingly as a single statement piece. It can be a central statement fixture over tables or grouped together in clusters to define seating and meeting areas in communal spaces.

But where it really shines is in clusters of multiples, invoking the look of a sculptural garden or a field of blooming flowers in the spring. Petals truly can create a span of art. The fixture is beautifully refined from above and below so any open space becomes a beautiful garden of light.


The LIT Design Awards ™ were created to recognize the efforts of talented international lighting product designers and lighting implementers. LIT believes that lighting is both an art and a science, and it is one of the most important elements of design. LIT was envisioned to celebrate creativity and innovation in the fields of lighting products and applications.
