Day 12 Final Presentations and Farewell Party

And here we are! The day of the presentation!

The morning was spent finalizing the presentations, printing, running around organizing, transporting, moving, setting up, rehearsing speeches, etc. Finally, everybody gathered in the Trappenzaal (in translation: the hall with/of steps) of the Architecture Building and Planning building for the last big event of the Elir workshop.  

The presentations, 8 to be precise, went from more serious to funny and inventive demonstrations of media approach. We had small scenarios, some with one, some with two, even 6 speakers for a team. It made us realise how much one can discover and learn from this type of event. There are different approaches, cultures and visions over architecture. Creating one's style benefits greatly from repeated exposure to as many different approaches as possible. For that we are deeply grateful to all the teachers that have shared their knowledge. 

After the presentations, everybody gathered around the exhibition presenting a glimpse of the resulted work.

The farewell party took place at the Usine restaurant in Eindhoven. They offered us a nice intimate atmosphere for our last evening together and of course good food.

People said their goodbye's, took pictures and enjoyed their time together. 

Many, many thanks to:
