The IES Illumination Awards (North America + International) were held in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania on Sunday, November 2, 2014 as part of the IES Annual Conference ‘A Confluence of Art and Science’.

The program recognises individuals for professionalism, ingenuity and originality in lighting design based on the individual merit of each entry. Judges are selected from a broad professional spectrum representing knowledge of lighting and design excellence, and the judging system is entirely based on how well the lighting design meets the program criteria. The Illumination Awards program is not a competition.

2014 marks the 41th anniversary of the IES lighting awards program, with illumni offering its congratulations to all of the winners.
