Today we’re thrilled to announce the winners of L A M P 2020! Now in its sixth year, the international lighting design competition received a record number of submissions from 162 cities in 37 countries.

“The LAMP design competition is very exciting because it allowed me to see and understand new perspectives on lighting design from around the world. From as far as India, to Singapore, Australia, Turkey and Spain, an emerging generation is thinking about the future of illumination,” said juror Stephen Burks
