The Lighthouse

13 entries to The Lighthouse Design Impact Award (DIA) have been shortlisted, including the design of the Queens Baton for the XX Commonwealth Games and further demonstrate the innovative Scottish design talent alive and kicking today.

The second Design Impact Awards, run by The Lighthouse, Scotland’s Centre for Design and Architecture, was launched across Scotland in May with two prizes up for grabs – the public vote winner and the judge’s winner.
