IIDA Calibre Award Nominees 2024
Oculus Light Studio is thrilled to announce that seven of our projects have been nominated for this year’s 2024 Calibre Design Awards.
Still currently in the design phase, and nominated in the Unbuilt/On The Boards category, is the Century City Cultural Pavilion. We look forward to the completion of this project as we envision attending future galas like Calibre in a venue that we contributed in designing!
Nominated in the Work Medium category:
- Universal Music Publishing Group’s lighting scheme designed in collaboration with Gensler, includes a line of light that traces its way through the project uplighting the wood ceilings and dynamic atrium lighting that can be customized for live impromptu performances.
- 9000 Wilshire, a project in collaboration with Neil M. Denari Architects and HLW, has an eye-catching purple facade (a tailored suit was the metaphor), and the beautifully illuminated planting wall draws attention from the street scale, creating a strong identity at night.
Nominated in the Work Small category are four unique projects where lighting plays a key role:
- Resmark Companies: designed in collaboration with Gensler, the lighting design includes a dramatic statement making feature chandelier in the boardroom and accent lighting to feature the company’s art collection throughout.
- Hines West Edge LA: designed in collaboration with Rapt Studio, utilizes a collection of decorative lighting to create a warm, natural feel making it an office home away from home.
- Shamrock Capital: designed in collaboration with Donaldson+Partners and constrained by low ceiling heights, the architectural lighting is minimal and places emphasis on the company identity.
- Gensler’s Office of the Future: we helped reimagine their Los Angeles office space. The incorporation of hospitality-inspired lighting elements aims to create a welcoming and comfortable environment for employees and visitors alike.
As a Pearl Sponsor of this year’s awards gala, Oculus is proud to support the exceptional work being done in Los Angeles and beyond. We are excited to celebrate alongside our peers on May 3rd and extend our heartfelt congratulations to all the nominees. Together, we continue to push the boundaries of design and innovation, shaping the future of our industry.
