darc awards / architectural 2016

The darc awards are unique. The awards comprise of an event for independent lighting designers and are voted for by independent lighting designers. They celebrate the best in creative architectural lighting design and the winners are chosen by the lighting community... just like the oscars.

In our second year, we refined a few things. We created two separate awards structures – architectural and decorative. The result being that we had had more entries, more votes and more countries represented. Our mission is to break the rules of awards ceremonies.

Light Collective are creative consultants to the darc awards.
