✦ ArchUp Editorial Insight
ARCHITECT@WORK Milan 2025 illustrates how trade exhibitions can evolve into high-impact design incubators. The event’s minimal, lounge-like spatial strategy focuses attention on pre-screened product innovation, while the ‘Living Scenarios’ installation subtly explores material interaction with human senses. Still, the heavy emphasis on materiality and objects may leave conceptual or urban design practitioners seeking more theoretical context. Nonetheless, the curated nature of the experience, combined with a theme as future-facing as Metamorphosis, positions the event as a crucial moment in the evolving dialogue between spatial flexibility and human perception.
