The International Illumination Design Awards program of the IESNA provides A unique opportunity for public
recognition of professionalism, ingenuity, and originality in lighting design based upon the individual merit of each
entry judged against specific criteria.
Judges are selected from a broad professional spectrum that represents knowledge of lighting and design excellence. The
judging system is based entirely on how well the lighting design does or does not meet the program criteria. This program
is not a competition. The program is open to any qualified entrant without limitations as to professional affiliations. The
Guth, Waterbury, Cutler and the Energy and Environmental Design Award Sponsored by OSRAM SYLVANIA are parallel programs
created to recognize outstanding lighting design.
