SELECTION PROCESS

1st PHASE - PRE-SELECTION

LAMP will contact those selected by email in order for them to send, within a period of 10 days, the Lighting Project. This must include graphic and written information which allows to assess the objectives it pursues and shows the specific lighting solutions adopted in terms of light sources, lighting units and control systems. This must be submitted in printed form, DINA3 or DINA4.

2nd PHASE - FINALISTS
The jury will meet at the end of March 2013 to decide on 4 finalist works for each category and the 4 winners. If appropriate, the jury may consider more than 4 projects per category as finalists and give honourable mention to any project they deem worthy. The LIGHTING CONCEPTS '13 book will include all the finalists' projects. The finalists must hand in all the necessary graphic material required for the book.
