IES Edmonton Members: Submit Your Project for a Northern Lights Award

April 11, 2017

The Northern Lights Awards recognizes excellence in the field of lighting design and the use of lighting controls in nonresidential applications throughout the Edmonton and Northern Alberta area.

The program raises awareness of the importance of lighting design and controls integration and improves our industry as a whole.

Project types may range from simple to complex, and include creative solutions to both new and traditional challenges.

One winner will be presented in each of two categories: Interior and Exterior. For simply submitting a project, there will be a prize draw, and for merely showing up and voting, there is a draw for a $100 VISA gift card. No project is too small or too big: all submissions are welcome.

The project submissions will be voted for by all attendees of this year’s AGM. Submissions will be accepted until 10:00 AM on May 19, 2017.
