new york city's department of design and construction in partnership with the department of transportation is pleased to announce an international design competition for a new streetlight for the city of new york. the winning design and its variations will be used to light streets, sidewalks, and parks within the city's five boroughs. the design challenge facing the competitors is to create an innovative, state-of-the-art design that responds to the unique diversity of the city's architecture and urban landscape while meeting the technical performance standards for a new york city streetlight. jurors include elizabeth diller, peter eisenman, paul marantz, and guy nordenson.
this is a two-stage, international design competition. the competition format asks competitors to submit their concept ideas in stage i, and for a jury to select three competitors who will receive an honorarium to produce more detailed designs in stage ii. stage i of the competition is open to the entire design community including architects, artists, engineers, landscape architects, planners, urban designers, lighting designers, product and industrial designers, and manufacturers. recognizing that the apparent simplicity of a streetlight design belies its technical complexity, the sponsor encourages multi-disciplinary teams to participate. stage ii competitors will be required to include on their team at least one individual licensed to practice structural engineering in the country or state of their residence.
