The objective of the Design Contest is to design a light fitting for three-circuit busbar, 230VAC. Busbars are a technical component used with lighting which allows dynamic changes – it is possible to change the position of a light fitting and add or remove light sources depending on the needs and situation.
Busbars have a wide range of applications. Light fittings mounted on busbars may be used in different types of interiors and be used for lighting in different facilities. The use of universal adapters makes it possible to power a wide range of light fittings – from classic spotlights to lamps with different shapes, functions and purpose.
