We asked the winner to share the details.
“The design was created as part of the educational process; I carried it out under the supervision of teachers at the Romanov Architectural Studio. They supported the initial idea, advised and helped me, especially in terms of substantiating the work from a constructive and technical view point. The rivalry in the competition was high. I believe that a quality presentation helped me win. I divided it into three parts: first I spoke about the idea and shaping, then I elaborated on the facade systems and window panes that are to be used, and ultimately I paid focused on the living environment of this building, how it will provide people with better comfort. I tried to make the presentation informative, but not overloaded with details,” said Valeria.
