The first edition of
Archathon in partnership with
CASACOR Minas Gerais has come to an end and exceeded the organization's expectations, with a record number of participants for a new capital. Due to the high level of projects presented during the marathon, the show's management, in partnership with the judges decided to invite, in addition to the winning group, another team that stood out in the competition. Triar, a group composed of Thales Luchesi, Ana Paula and Marcelo Martins, was the winner and received the opportunity to design two environments in the 23rd edition of
CASACOR Minas, which will be held between August 12th and September 17th. They will design the
Varanda and also the
Box Office . The Elephant group, formed by Rogério Lages, Elisa Raabe, Talita Soares, was the group specially invited by the event organizers and will also be part of the exhibition's team of professionals, creating the project for an environment that is yet to be defined.
CASACOR Archathon is an architecture and design marathon that seeks to present to the market the emerging work of young professionals, who are about to graduate or have recently graduated. In addition to promoting practical knowledge, the marathon also guarantees participants the opportunity to be involved in all stages of the execution of a real project, which justifies the large number of registrants.
