First Place Winner

Urbania, first act

Design by

Alexia Moulin

"The design itself is not unique, but it is bold. I enjoyed reading a design description that sounded like a manifesto. I think they might be overzealous in their choice of trees, and would like to have seen images or callouts in the poster that show what the different species look like. Design sheet 3 graphics are hard to read and they are not described. I'm not sure what they are meant to say. There is text referring to breaking up asphalt to allow plants to thrive. I would like to see what is meant by this. I gave high marks for boldness and poster design, but feel that it needs more details about the actual design."

Alexia Moulin

My name is Alexia Moulin. I am a 23 years old French girl born in the city of Dijon in the region of Burgundy, a place deeply rooted in vegetation and landscape. I studied architecture at the Architecture University of Paris-Est in the outskirts of Paris, before starting a Master of Science in landscape architecture at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Alnarp, Sweden, in 2022 where I am still studying. Aside from that, I also work as a photographer, illustrator and 3D renderer from time to time.
