biennale interieur 2018. jury spaces awards
|
This years jury for the Interieur Awards consisted of, amongst others, Alex Mustonen of Snarkitecture, journalist Tom Morris and Glenn Sestig.
The goal was to select the projects the jurors found remarkable enough to be presented to the large and professional audience. The winning bar concepts are built at the biennale for the visitors to experience and are yet again a fine example of what is going on in the present world of design.
Make sure to look for them while visiting the biennale.
