In a world saturated with repetitive solutions, Warsaw's EXPO XXI on May 27-28, 2026 will become a refuge for those who look for something more than catalog schemes in architecture. ARCHITECT@WORK returns to Warsaw to prove that less is more, as long as this "less" is subjected to the merciless selection of experts. This is not a fair, it's a curatorial manifesto of modern design.

The core of this year's edition is sound knowledge, not marketing promises. Piotr Kuczia, an architect for whom sustainability is not a fashionable buzzword, but the foundation of the structure, will challenge traditional thinking about ecology. Also speaking will be: Szymon Wojciechowski, Anna Lorenz, Piotr Bujnowski and Karol Wawrzyniak.

In cooperation with SARP, the event drills down into the most difficult topics of today, from systemic evaluation of building renovation to the second life of matter. This is where theory meets practice at its most raw and authentic.
ARCHITECT@WORK 2026 is a space that engages the senses. Wise Habit's installation, "Reflection. The Power of Three" is a multi-sensory journey through the architecture of crisis, ethics and sustainability. Sculpting steel with air (FiDU process), Oskar Zięta will dematerialize the weight of the metal before the viewers' eyes, turning it into a stable, pressurized form.
The "More Than Stone" exhibition is a manifesto for inclusive architecture. It departs from the traditional question "is it permissible to interfere with a monument?", putting the professional answer at the center: "how to do it wisely?". The exhibition is a practical guide to design that combines conservation rigor with empathy and concern for the well-being of the user, to be presented by The Place Foundation and the Warsaw Branch of SARP.

The Association of Interior Designers (SAW) will remind us of the profession's professionalization and designing for a better life. The "Interior of the Year" competition exhibition is not only a show of aesthetics, it is a lesson in responsibility for resources and man's relationship with nature. Complementing all this will be the Architecture Center Foundation bookstore - a place for those who believe that a good book on architecture is as important as good design.
It's all taking place in the black ARCHITECT@WORK setting, which mutes the overstimulation and allows you to focus on the details. More than two hundred approved innovations, from building systems to digital technologies, served in a professional catering environment and among people who really know how to build the future.
