Benas Vencevičius

Benas was born in Vilnius, Lithuania, a city with a harmonious diversity of styles, where his interest in architecture grew and where he still finds relief by just wandering around. Here he received his bachelor’s degree at Vilnius Tech, during studies participated in a study exchange in San Sebastian/Donostia at the University of the Basque Country, later did internships at Portuguese architectural offices in Porto, Faro and worked in several offices in his home country. During his time abroad not only his hedonic motives seeking a beachy lifestyle were satisfied but also gave him time to explore architectural boundaries within local traditions, expanding its potential and exploring modes of architectural representation. Later on, he settled in the Netherlands where once again he got acquainted with a completely different architectural mindset and in 2022 he received a master’s degree in architecture from TU Delft. Currently working at Woonwerk Architecten Benas complements projects with his vast experience and simply tries to find something joyful to work on within each project which he believes unfolds in the final result.
