Architect@Work - architect meets innovation

ARCHITECT@WORK is an innovative trade fair format specially developed for architects, interior designers, technical planners and decision makers working in the field of architecture. Originally launched in Belgium, the trade fair concept has now been rolled out across various markets and is now used in as many as 31 cities across 16 European countries. This international nature allows exhibitors and visitors from different countries to connect and gain a global perspective of the latest innovations and trends in architecture.

It places the emphasis on product innovations and creative solutions for the construction and facilities sector, complemented by an extensive programme of lectures and discussions covering the latest architecture topics.

ARCHITECT@WORK is perfectly tailored to its target audience from the architecture sector, both visually and thematically, and is therefore very different from conventional trade fair formats.

More than 200 exhibitors present their new and innovative products, materials and applications, which have been closely scrutinised and curated by a panel made up of architects and interior designers. Visitors are particularly appreciative of the trade fair’s manageable size: it is neither too big nor too small, making it easy to gain a good overview and quickly make contact with exhibitors.

As an internationally focussed company, we will also be present at certain ARCHITECT@WORK events where we will present our new products, which will not only set pulses racing among architects, but will also set new standards for design. With the new E1 design line, the redesigned Gira F100 and the Gira System 106 in the new black matt colour, we are injecting new life into building technology.

With a focus on “Transformation,” the ARCHITECT@WORK 2025 events spotlight the evolution and adaptive reuse of existing buildings. In light of resource scarcity, the climate crisis, and societal change, the question arises: how can we handle the built environment responsibly and with a forward-looking mindset?

ARCHITECT@WORK invites the industry to think beyond new construction and to view existing structures as a starting point for creative, functional, and aesthetic solutions. The comprehensive supporting programme – featuring expert talks and curated exhibitions – offers inspiration for professionals who aim to shape the future through the potential of what already exists.
