Choir by ADesignStudio wins 2025 Casambi Product of the Year Award

Merging technical precision with aesthetic clarity, Choir was designed as a response to the growing need for adaptive lighting solutions across residential, commercial, and hospitality environments. Entirely Casambi-integrated, the luminaire offers smooth dimming, tunable white control (1800–3500 K), dual battery configuration for extended life, and dual charging modes – USB-C for single units and a custom tray for multi-unit charging.

Its modular design, with interchangeable diffusers and serviceable components, ensures easy repair, reuse, and long-term sustainability. As Fitzpatrick describes, “Casambi champions flexibility and innovation, principles that underpin the very idea of wireless control. At its core, wireless technology is about freedom: freedom from fixed infrastructure, freedom to adapt, and freedom to imagine new possibilities.”

Choir has already made its debut in a rooftop restaurant project, where lighting designers sought to create an intimate yet controlled atmosphere. Integrated seamlessly with the venue’s DALI system, each luminaire contributed to the layered ambience across indoor and outdoor zones. The design’s M6 thread, initially intended as a theft deterrent, provided stability against rooftop winds – a testament to the product’s thoughtful engineering.

One Casambi Awards judge highlighted: “I selected Choir for its refined approach to portable lighting, an elegant balance of technology, design, and practicality. It brings wireless intelligence to battery-powered luminaires with precision and simplicity. The modular architecture allows easy replacement of components, reducing electronic waste and extending lifespan.”

Another noted its practical innovation and contextual relevance:

“The design of the luminaire is clean and neat, and the application example in a rooftop restaurant makes it clear why the Casambi module is relevant. It contributes to the ambient lighting in a wireless, controlled manner, while simplifying recharging and saving valuable staff time.”

Further praise came for its discreet intelligence and impact on the hospitality sector:

“It’s very awkward when a waiter manually adjusts your table light. With Casambi, that moment disappears. I’ve seen similar products before, but never one that integrates wireless control so seamlessly.”

From its tunable white light and dual charging system to its repairable architecture and Casambi-enabled control, Choir redefines what portable lighting can be—a sustainable, intelligent, and emotionally resonant design that sings with purpose.

As one judge poetically concluded:

“A luminaire that sings its own freedom – battery, wireless, and beautifully built; proof that circular design can still feel luxurious.”

Through its thoughtful engineering and graceful simplicity, Choir by AdesignStudio demonstrates that when design and technology harmonize, the result is pure illumination, where beauty meets intelligence, and freedom meets light.
