The light bulb used in Jason Bruges' installation has been given the inaugural award for innovative lighting design by the event's organisers, recognising the fact that it is the world's first fully dimmable energy efficient bulb.

World’s first fully dimmable CFL bulb makes shortlist in “most innovative lighting” category 

An interactive, low energy light bulb installation designed by Jason Bruges Studio and commissioned by Greenpeace has been moved to the front of house feature space at the 100% Design exhibition which begins next week in London. Exhibition organisers have recognised that the combination of style and efficiency embodied in Bruges' "Light Garden" will be a major draw for the show and a groundbreaking example of low energy technology.
