a. A Project Description Form
(excluding questions, word count not to exceed

fixtures category, a Project Description Form
is not required.

completed as accurately as possible.
(Do not include suppliers of flooring, mannequins,
lights, ceiling tile, etc.) Do include architects,
designers, fixture manufacturers, general contractors,
photographers, and retailers. Information should

press and web coverage. Entrant is responsible
for the collection and accurate reporting of
all contributing companies.

per submission in slide sleeves or envelopes
(not three-ring binders). Department stores
and Big Box “Specialty Stores Over 25,000
Sq. Ft.” only may submit as many as eight.
All slides must be accompanied by a copyright
release (form provided in the Official
Entry Forms). Label each slide with the
project name and number them in the preferred
sequence. Do NOT include the category name on
the label. In addition to the required slides,
high-quality (at least 300 pixels/inch at a
size of four inches wide) TIFF or JPG files
on disk or CD are appreciated for future promotional
purposes.

fixture award, either by entering store
fixtures directly into the Store Fixture category,
or by entering fixtures in an already-entered
project for an additional fee of $50, include
