Prende avvio la quinta edizione del concorso di lighting design e della mostra LAMP (Lighting Architecture Movement Project) che, quest'anno, ha evoluto il suo formato diventando un evento biennale per dare ai progettisti la possibilità di mettere a punto con maggiore precisione i progetti con cui parteciperanno al concorso in vista dell'esposizione.
Sin dal 2013, anno di istituzione della competizione, l'obiettivo è stato quello di introdurre un pubblico sempre più vasto al lighting design, promuovendo contemporaneamente i rapporti tra talenti emergenti e nuovi mercati.
Ogni anno il concorso chiede ai progettisti di cimentarsi con un nuovo tema individuato da una parola che dovranno concettualizzare e che, per il 2017, è "Balance".
Il concorso è aperto ad artisti, designer industriali e architetti e suddiviso in tre categorie: studenti, emergenti e affermati
L A M P aims to introduce a broader audience to lighting design while promoting and connecting emerging talents to new markets. Each year the competition challenges designers to approach their lighting fixtures with the guidance of a theme. Competition Finalists from around the world are showcased at the L A M P Opening Reception in Vancouver, BC.
Moving into our 5th year of the competition & exhibition, we have decided to extend the overall timeframe... We are very excited to announce that L A M P is evolving from our annual competition & event to a biannual format. This will provide designers time to fully execute their designs and prototypes for the entry deadline & exhibition.
Designers receive a thematic word to interpret in their own way and have nine months to conceptualize their design for the judging process. The 2017 theme is: Balance.
