The architectural world is no different with BNKR Arquitectura teaming up with coca cola to create a statement cafeteria area for CIHAC which is the biggest annual architecture and construction exhibition in Latin America.

Construction materials for these temporary structures often end up in land-fills therefore it was sensible to partner with coca cola to borrow their crates for the exhibition, build the cafeteria then return the crates back to coca cola where they continue to serve their main purpose.

Anastasia Andreieva is an accomplished Architectural Projects Editor at Arch2O, bringing a unique blend of linguistic expertise and design enthusiasm to the team. Born and raised in Ukraine, she holds a Master’s degree in Languages from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. Her deep passion for architecture and visual storytelling led her to transition from translation and editorial roles into the world of design media. With a keen eye for conceptual clarity and narrative structure, Anastasia curates and presents global architectural projects with precision and flair. She is particularly drawn to parametric and digital design, cultural context, and emerging voices in architecture. When I’m not analyzing the latest architectural trends, you’ll probably find me searching for hidden gems in cityscapes or appreciating the beauty of well-crafted spaces. After all, great design—like great connections—can be found in the most unexpected places. Speaking of connections, because architecture isn’t the only thing that brings people together.
