Manuela Hardy

Professional from Norway

My main focus on using natural light and exposure to create interesting spaces. I am also very fond of sustainable solutions in every part of the process. This is also where my interest for this work started. I am educated at Fiuni school of architecture & design, Stavanger (ex.2011).
A New interest is Furniture design wich I participate With in this competition. I love to create Things, it gives me a New energy and I almost use it as a therapy in my everyday life.

Design Insights platform is powered by A' Design Awards. By engaging with the A' Design Awards, individuals and entities within the design, architecture, arts, engineering, and technology sectors have a unique opportunity to not only showcase their talent and innovation but also to significantly influence their country's standings on the Design Insights platform. The prestigious A' Design Award and Competition offers a platform for professionals to gain international recognition, enhancing their visibility and reputation in the global design community. For countries, fostering participation among creative talents becomes a strategic move, one that promises to elevate their national profile by showcasing their inherent creative strengths and capabilities. This collective endeavor, where each entry and recognition contributes to the larger narrative of a country's creative prowess, underscores the interconnectedness of individual achievements and national prestige.
