GE Lighting has announced a call for entries for its 29th annual GE Edison Award competition, recognizing excellence and quality in professional lighting designs that employ the significant use of GE light sources (lamps and/or LEDs).
The competition is open to professional designers, architects, engineers and consultants for projects completed during the 2011 calendar year. Online entries are judged on the following criteria: functional excellence; architectural compatibility; effective use of state–of–the–art lighting products and techniques; appropriate color, form and texture revelation; energy efficiency and cost effectiveness.
All lighting projects, submitted for award consideration, must have been completed between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2011. Entries must be received by 11:59 p.m. on January 9, 2012. Entries from all countries will be considered and will be only accepted electronically.
A new, Web-based entry submittal process has been developed to replace the former hard-copy process. To submit a project, entrants should go to the GE Edison Award website for full details.
