MFLD honored with 2023 Lumen Award for Trinity Church

MFLD was honored to win a Lumen Award of Merit for their work on Trinity Church Wall Street. Gabe Guilliams, Lumen Award judge writes, “This project has been executed with exceptional attention to detail, resulting in a stunning composition that truly defines the space. Having personally experienced it, I must also highlight the mesmerizing beauty of the stained glass when viewed from the outside. While not shown here, it’s a further testament to the skillful execution of this project.”

The Lumen Awards were established in 1968 by the New York City Section of the Illuminating Engineering Society (IESNYC) and developed to publicly recognize excellence, professionalism, ingenuity and originality in lighting design. The IESNYC announced the recipients of the 2023 Lumen Awards at the 53st annual Lumen Gala in June.

In Design: Bank of America-Sunset Park, Brooklyn

MFLD is working with B+W Architecture on a 5,700sf interior fit-out for a flagship Bank of America branch in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Located on the ground floor and mezzanine level of a newly completed mixed-use building, the multi-leveled, double-height space has a corner street-facing entrance. The full height glass walls require distinctive illumination in this commercial neighborhood. The lighting design provides bright, non-glare illumination for clients on both levels and reinforces the open architectural design. The project is designed to achieve LEED Certification.
