## About

An independent international lighting design competition championing emerging design talent.

L A M P the Competition is a small, independent organization dedicated to championing emerging talent in lighting design and connecting designers to new markets. Sparking innovation in illumination since 2013, it runs an annual international lighting design competition for students, professionals, and manufacturers.
