OAA Headquarters

The lighting component of the OAA Headquarters’ Renew + Refresh renovation project has received its fifth award.

The work, executed by Gottesman Associates (with principal Deborah Gottesman, P.Eng., MBA, LC, Assoc.IALD), and electrical engineering by WSP, recently earned a Sapphire Award for Design Excellence in Networked Lighting Controls for Energy Management, presented by LEDs Magazine in conjunction with the Lighting Controls Association.

Previously, the lighting earned Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) Awards of Merit in every category: Lighting Design, Energy and Environment, and Lighting Controls. It was also honoured in the Low-Carbon Lighting category at the LIT Lighting Design Awards.
