I am very pleased to be part of the DIVIA team, and we are thrilled about the first “YOUNG DIVIA 2026” honor, which was presented in France as part of the Strasbourg Architecture Days 2026: On October 14, 2026, Justine Lajus-Pueyo – https://lnkd.in/e_deQ9qR– got the 1st prize, which included a year of mentoring from Much Untertrifaller—a heartfelt thank you to your engagement for equality in architecture, Much!

An innovative lamp by Zumtobel – was handed to the winner by Maxime Blanchon – international projects manager by Zumtobel Paris. Our thanks goes as well to your engagement at DIVIA e.V. and to Isabell Zumtobel, merci.
At the same time, DIVIA presented the exhibition for the 2025 DIVIA Award again – on the exhibition road tour – at the Italian Cultural Institut in Strasbourg. A heartfelt thank you for the hospitality to Gracia Labagnara.
Our thank as well to Pauline Bamberger from the wine estate Glow Glow for biological drinks. A big “Merci” also goes to Ivonne Gribé, who was among the finalists and, like Justine, participated in the panel discussion: The focus is on innovation in education—a topic that is just as politically charged in France—and one that came up again in Paris the very next week…
