The attendees had the chance of participating in an interesting educational workshop with Anna Devís and Daniel Rueda, both of them architects engaged in creative photography. In this theoretical and practical workshop, they learned to observe and represent architectural spaces from a new perspective.

On July 16th and 17th, a group of participants from all One Day Design Challenge and jumpthegap® editions took part in an event in Barcelona with the aim of creating a community of professionals around the brand and the disciplines linked to Architecture and Design.
