2010 GE Edison Award Call for Entries

The 2010 GE Edison Award competition is open to professional designers, architects, engineers and consultants who creatively employ significant use of GE light sources (lamps and/or LEDs) in a lighting design project completed within the 2010 calendar year (1 January 2010 through 31 December 2010).

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 effectiveness and cost effectiveness.

Projects scoring the highest number of points based on the above criteria will qualify to receive Awards of Excellence or Awards of Merit. The GE Edison Award Winner is selected from among the Awards of Excellence. Additional awards include the Award for Residential Lighting Design, presented to the project that best exemplifies excellence in lighting design within a residential application, and the Award for Excellence in Environmental Design, which gives special recognition to those projects that minimize the use of energy, maximize the use of daylighting, control light pollution, and ensure system durability and maintainability. GE reserves the right to not make an award in one or more categories.

Entries will be accepted only via surface or air mail, and must be received by GE in Cleveland, Ohio, USA by 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on 10 January 2011.
