The results of the international design competition for theVectorworks Design Prize scholarship and the Richard Diehl Prize for female students of architecture, interior and landscape architecture and stage techniques were announced in early December 2022.

• Dagmara Brzezinska—Design Express Poland,
• Jacek Chojczak—Green Beam Design,
