Now in its 51st year, the awards program named 13 winners across three categories: The Lumen Award of Excellence, the highest level of recognition for a permanent architectural application; the Award of Merit, which recognizes a meritorious, permanent architectural application; and the Lumen Citation, which honors an art or temporary installation, technical detail, portion of a single project, or other work.
