Cosentino has announced that the Cosentino Design Challenge Jury has selected the winners of the 8th edition. Prizes are awarded for two categories, Architecture and Design and each category was awarded with three individual prizes of €1,000 each.
The Cosentino Design Challenge is a competition for design, architecture and interior architecture students anywhere in the world. It aims to foster the talent of students and promote research into the different conceptual approaches to the layout of spaces, materials and the construction systems that define them, using materials made by The Cosentino Group.
A total of twelve institutions, schools and international universities actively participated in the Cosentino Design Challenge 2014, and this year’s competition received a total of 212 applications; 72 projects for the architecture category and 140 projects for the design category.
The competition’s verdict took place on 24 June, in the cultural center CaixaForum in Madrid. During this meeting, proposals for the theme of the ninth edition of the Cosentino Design Challenge was discussed, which will be launched later this year.
