Atelier VRAC. A first public presentation

Atelier VRAC — Residency — architecture & urban regeneration

Zenaida Florea and Cristi Bădescu presented their projects publicly for the first time in the house garden, followed by a discussion on the state of the architectural profession.

Architecture shown in the open, without packaging — much like the studio's own name.

Part ofSocial Fabric 2023

Zenaida Florea and Cristi Bădescu founded Atelier VRAC in Bucharest in 2022. On 25 July 2023, in the garden of Casa Jakab Toffler, they presented their projects publicly for the first time: the regeneration of the Hipodrom district in Brăila, and F.I.D. — the collaborative proposal in Piața Traian.

The evening closed with a conversation about the state of the architectural profession, held in a fragile balance between formal education, one's own research interests and presence on the market.
