Each year the architecture firms at Venice Studio nominate individuals from their design teams who demonstrate skills and attitudes which complement their own values and standards.
Ambassador status is by invitation only and may acknowledge design skill, creativity, engagement, spirit and overall contribution to the design team and program-at-large.
