The annual IES New York City Section competition for students enrolled in design, engineering, or architecture programs at colleges or universities within the city’s five boroughs, and broader state counties that used to be represented by the former Mid-Hudson Section, is accepting applications until March 1, 2025.
This year’s challenge, “A Sight for Sore Eyes,” encourages applicants to thoughtfully design a 3-D study to solve an “eyesore experience” with the visual comfort of viewers in mind.
The competition will be a live event presented at the LEDucation Tradeshow and Conference at the New York Hilton Midtown in New York City over the course of two days: March 18 and 19, with the award ceremony taking place on the first day at 5 p.m.
