What the attendees had to say about the event…

 

Christoph Wegner
ASC Berlin – Winner of Concert Hall
“The result of this success is hard work, dialogue with those involved and joint commitment to the solution we wanted to achieve. Winners are all those who have surpassed themselves and their limits. My thanks go to our client, the Barenboim Said Academy, to the specialist planner Florian Schaller, to the manufacturers GDS and ETC and, last but not least, especially to those who have implemented this project by hand, the ASC team.”

 

Jean Marcouiller
Dragone – Winner of Theatre
“The mondo*dr Awards are the gold standard for professionals in the entertainment business and we are delighted with this success. La Perle was designed by the scenographer, Jean Rabasse, under the artistic direction of Franco Dragone and developed by the team of the Architecture and Design Department of Dragone. This long-term project was led through my leadership and the direction of Marc Provencher. This magnificent result is a collaboration of all our talented team members and especially the work of Stephane Beaulac of Square One Studio. We must give our thanks and appreciation to the indisputable support of our partner Al Habtoor Group, Yusef Shalabi and all the suppliers who made this concept a reality.”

 

Oz Jefferies
Audio Feed – Winner of Bar & Restaurant
“It is a fantastic honour for Audio Feed to win a mondo*dr Award with Funktion-One. We are all incredibly grateful for mondo*dr’s recognition and support.  After attending the 2017 awards show, it was clear that this is the new industry standard for excellence, so to be winning 12 months later isincredible. It makes all the late nights and hard work worthwhile. These projects are only made possible when all the professionals in the chain work together, so this mondo*dr award truly belongs to every single person that worked on St Giles House from start to finish.”

We are extremely proud to be at the forefront of this industry together with them.”
