Roca has presented the awards of the sixth edition of the international design contest jumpthegap, through the prestigious Chinese architect Ma Yansong, president of the jury, in a ceremony held at the Roca Madrid Gallery. In the Professional category, the awarded project has been “Btwist”, from the Spanish Irene Cañada and Raquel Prendes, and in the Student category, the project “[Aria] 2”, from Samuele Nucaro and Cristina Tu Ahn Pham, two Italian students, has been the winner. Both projects have been awarded 6,000 Euros. “Btwist”, the winning project in the Professional category, consists of an innovative solution for the bathroom space. It is a basin that combines three different dimensions for different uses. Through its design, as explained by the winners, the project allows the fulfillment of various actions at the same time. “[Aria]2”, on the other hand, winner in the Student category, is the perfect combination of accessibility, speed and innovation. The solution for the bathroom space proposed by the Italian couple is a shower that carries out the soaking-drying effect. Designed for modern bathrooms, the project creates an innovative shower with multiple uses. For the first time the biennial competition organized since 2004 by Roca in collaboration with Barcelona Design Centre (BCD), has awarded the Sustainability Prize, which was presented by the We Are Water Foundation and consisted of 3,000 Euros. The proposals combining an innovative and sustainable design have therefore been recognized. The winning project has been “Plura”, from Katharina Sophie Wohlleben and Larissa Siemon. The Germans propose a basin that uses a pedal to activate the faucet with the aim of avoiding the waste of water, this being the focus of the project. This year the competition has obtained a global participation from 112 different countries (3,700 contestants). http://www.jumpthegap.net
