Source Award

June 1, 2017

The Canadian design team of Paul D. Mercier and Kimberly R. Mercier are recipients of Source awards for two lighting design projects: the 1st Street SW Underpass in Calgary, Alberta http://lighting.electricalindustry.ca/led-technology/1501-illumination-project-to-animate-calgary-underpass, and the City of New York Brooklyn College, Brooklyn, New York.

Now in its 41st year, the Source Awards competition is open to all lighting designers, architects, engineers, professional designers, and consultants who use Eaton’s lighting fixtures in an interior or exterior design project. Students currently enrolled in any of these disciplines are also eligible to enter projects based on conceptual lighting designs utilizing Eaton’s lighting fixtures, and are judged in a separate student category. Eaton hosts the awards as part of the company’s commitment to celebrating current and future lighting designers and specifiers.

“We congratulate the talented winners of this year’s SOURCE Awards competition, our 40th year of celebrating lighting design,” said Kraig Kasler, president, Eaton’s Lighting Division, during the awards ceremony. “The outstanding quality of work from the professional winners features a diverse group of architectural projects including a dynamic library, a historical museum, a beautiful private residence and the successful energy-efficient upgrades of a college hall, an operations and maintenance facility, and a city’s underpass. For our winning students, we hope their impressive work will inspire them towards a career in lighting.”
