TRILUX, a manufacturer of professional lighting systems, has won a prestigious ‘Build Back Better’ Gold Award for its Osido wall luminaire, recognising the product’s innovation, sustainability, and contribution to reducing light pollution in architectural lighting.
The Build Back Better Awards celebrate excellence across innovation, creativity, social purpose, and environmental leadership.
In the 2025 lighting category, judges assessed projects, products, and initiatives from across the industry, awarding just one Platinum, eight Green, and a select number of Gold accolades.
How Osido won
Osido secured its Gold Award for tackling one of the toughest challenges in architectural lighting: creating striking façades and building surrounds without contributing to obtrusive light or sky glow.
Instead of external shields or louvres, Osido integrates the solution into its design.
In versions with indirect lighting, the LED board is angled inward by 6°, directing light precisely onto the façade and significantly reducing upward emissions – supporting Dark Sky principles.
Beyond its optical precision, Osido sets new benchmarks in sustainability and ease of use.
Based on a modular concept, the range supports refurbishment and circular economy principles with standardised mounting plates that allow one-person installation, upgrades, or maintenance.
A larger cavity behind the mounting plate simplifies cable routing, while plug-and-play connectors enable tool-free installation.
The luminaire family combines application-specific MLT optics, optional facial illumination modules for enhanced safety, and compatibility with Casambi and LiveLink controls.
Designed to blend seamlessly into both modern and traditional architecture, Osido is available in four shapes, with further extensions to include ceiling luminaires, bollards, and spotlights planned.
Leighton James, Product and Marketing Director TRILUX, says, “Winning a Build Back Better Gold Award underlines Osido’s role in setting new standards for responsible architectural lighting.
“By combining design impact with environmental responsibility, Osido demonstrates how product innovation can support both the needs of designers and the wider goals of sustainability.”
The award was officially presented on 25 September 2025 at Circular Lighting Live in London, with winners announced publicly the following day.
