DS, a dark sky–friendly luminaire designed by Dark Source and manufactured by Griven, has won the Gold and Green Build Back Better Awards 2025
in the lighting category.
DS was conceived by the lighting designer Kerem Ali
Asfuroglu to address a challenge shared by dark sky advocates worldwide: the
lack of affordable, sustainable, and durable outdoor lighting alternative which
is aligned with dark sky principles and industrial quality standards.
Most domestic exterior lights sourced from online or
local retailers often fail to meet the basic performance requirements, leading
to unnecessary material, electrical, and financial waste. In contrast, DS is engineered to grant longevity, versatility and adaptability
for all domestic and professional applications.
By marrying sustainability with technical precision,
DS provides a responsible alternative which enables outdoor illumination
without compromising the night sky.
