THE WINNERS
Paola Meneghetti graduated in Construction Engineering from the University of Padua in 2022, and is currently collaborating with an architectural firm working on residential, commercial and public projects. Her passion for architecture stems from her family's activity in the construction industry, which allowed her to closely observe construction processes from early on. During her studies she participated in several self-construction workshops, appreciating the importance of attention to detail and the study of materials.
Flore Teyssendier de la Serve is a french young architect who graduated from École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture Paris-Malaquais and also completed a semester at IUAV in Venice. Her interest in architecture ranges from the filiation of place to construction details, and she has a personal interpretation of architecture through a regular sketching practice. She enjoys travelling and learning about new cultures, which is why the Renzo Piano World Tour represents a dream come true for her.
Iván Rando Campos is an architect and early career curator. He holds a bachelor's and a master's degree in Architecture with honors from the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Madrid. Currently, his work focuses on the relationship between territory, infrastructure, and design, aiming to create more accessible, socially responsible, and environmentally conscious architectural scenarios.
