Queensland lighting awards 2012
The Illuminating Engineering Society of Australia and New Zealand Limited (Queensland Chapter) invites Owners and/or Designers of recently completed lighting installations in metropolitan and regional areas to nominate for the 2012 Queensland Lighting Awards.
The Awards represent the Queensland Chapter’s most important contribution to the recognition and promotion of the art and science of illuminating engineering in Queensland. As well as giving acclaim to designs of high standard, the Society believes that in promoting the awards, the concept of professionalism in the industry is enhanced and the importance of lighting design is publically acknowledged.
Nominators should consider carefully the area or areas submitted for judging. It is not unusual for an installation to have individual areas of high merit but in total is not considered to justify an award.
Nominations will not be accepted for luminaire design. The Society conducts a separate Luminaire Design Award competition each year to recognise excellence in the design of luminaires.
Nominations must be submitted in accordance with the Conditions of Entry and comprise the official Entry Form, Designer’s Statement, appropriate material on CD and the entry fee. In 2012, the entry fee is $280.00 for members and $325.00 for Non-Members (including GST).
A1 size display boards comprising photographs and summary information will be required with all entries. Boards will be displayed at various IES functions and the RAIA Queensland headquarters.
This year we would like to encourage those who have interesting Visual effects or Artworks, Special Events, Public and Heritage buildings, Landscaping, Residential and Retail entering the awards.
A reminder that nominations are not restricted to members of the society and that overseas project are also eligible for entry. Submissions for temporary installations (special events and theatrical) should be based on achieved lighting outcomes and not the result of the actions or objects being lit by the installation.
Nominators should note that the details supplied on the Entry Form for the Installation, Owner/Lessee, Lighting Designer(s) and Predominant Lighting Equipment Manufacturer will be used exactly as submitted on any certificate awarded. Any nominator requesting a variation to the certificate, once printed, will bear the full cost of reprinting the certificates.
It should also be noted that those parties to appear on the certificates should only be those that had a significant involvement in the design and for example, should not be a list of all lighting equipment manufacturers whose equipment had been specified and installed.
