rosu-ciocodeica

Are two Bucharest based architects which graduated from the Ion Mincu University of Architecture and Urbanism-Bucharest in 2011. They both have a keen interest in architecture, interior design, product design and also urban installations that raise public awareness. In the spring of 2014 they created The Urban Lighthouse, a floating installation that floats on Dambovita followed in summer 2014 by "Uranus Chronic(ally)" for ’Spatiuexpandat’ ,an art in public space program. This urban installation was meant as a reminder for the series of massive demolitions in the city’s historical center during Nicolae Ceausescu's dictatorship fueled by his desire to build The People's House. In 2014 Bogdan and Diana took part in several art and architecture exhibitions such as: Wood & Wool Exhibition (which represented Romania at the Stockholm Design Week), Romanian Design Week and Vienna Design Week. They were awarded the first prize in the international architecture competition Eco Arhipelag, organized by the Ivan Patzaichin - Mila 23, which aimed to draw attention to the Danube Delta ecosystem and to promote non-invasive tourism using renewable and sustainable energy sources. Together they have designed the exhibition space for the “Light for Romania” (“LuminăpentruRomânia”) project, during Street Delivery (Bucharest, 2014) which was held by the Free Miorița Organization, that aims to expand the electricity grid to isolated villages around the country, by using sustainable technologies.
