CaptureSet in the Peak District National Park the proposal reimagines monocultural forestry commission landscape at a range of scales in response to current national housing, elderly care and landscape management crises. As human intervention becomes legible, impressions of nature are emancipated from naïve conceptions of beauty. The jury was impressed by Matthew’s sophisticated response to the complexity of the post Brexit situation realized through beautiful drawings, illustrations and writings.

Submissions for the prestigious award came from registered schools in Europe and, for the first time this year, from China and South Korea: 334 nominated diploma projects from schools in 34 countries.

The work will be on exhibition at Palazzo Mora and will remain open to the public until November 25th as a Collateral Event of the 16th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia.
