Architectural Lighting (AL) and ARCHITECT (AR) magazines invite you to send new product releases for editorial consideration on archlighting.com and in ARCHITECT’s April 2018 issue, which will be distributed at international lighting trade show Lightfair as well as other industry shows. Luminaires, light sources, and lighting products that have been released after June 2017 will be considered for publication.

The AL + AR Product Call is an online, two-step process via a separate web portal: alproductcall.com

We recommend using Google Chrome or Firefox as your internet browser. Submissions via email will not be accepted.

Step One: Complete online registration form and make payment.
Step Two: After registration and payment are complete, materials are uploaded.
(Note: You can go back and make changes to material uploads prior to final submit.)
