The FABRICATE Call for Works is open and the organisers are looking for innovative projects from research and industry to be a part of this international event. Call Deadline: 3rd July 2026 Call Details: https://www.fabricate.org/ Submission Guidelines: https://www.fabricate.org/submission-guidelines-2027/ Submission Stage 1 consists of an Abstract of 600-800 words with 10-15 embedded images that declare and clearly demonstrate the specific research innovation as built, and in the development of being built. High quality images of design and fabrication processes should predominate the selection, with 3-4 images of the work as complete. The 2027 Edition focuses on rethinking extractive models of architectural production, learning from local contexts, and empowering more diverse communities of designers, makers, and builders. FABRICATE is looking for work that engages meaningfully with material, social, and environmental questions across diverse scales and geographies. Since its inception FABRICATE has played an important role in promoting innovative work at the intersection of design and making—bringing forward projects that challenge how architecture is conceived, materialized, and constructed. It has been a platform not only for technological advancement, but also for new ways of thinking about practice, materiality, and impact. While FABRICATE has often been associated with advanced manufacturing and robotics, this year FABRICATE is also interested in broad critical shifts in the field. The event is co-chaired by Areti Markopoulou (Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia) and Xavier De Kestelier (Hassell) aiming to strengthen ties between industry and research. FABRICATE 2027 will take place on the 14th and 15th May, 2027, in Barcelona, Spain, organised by IAAC and hosted by COAC (Col·legi d'Arquitectes de Catalunya). Any updates regarding the calls and tickets will be posted on the FABRICATE website and Instagram Channel (@fabricateconference).
Van Alen Institute has spent more than 130 years at the intersection of design ambition, education, and civic life. Today, we are a driving force behind community-led urban design, which believes that local knowledge and care enrich the design process. Our archive—comprising thousands of competition boards, jury records, photographs, and correspondences—is one of the most significant collections of American architectural history in existence. Much of it has never been seen by the public.
Architects, designers, and multidisciplinary teams across Europe: this is your opportunity to help shape the future of sustainable construction. At revalu, we are launching an open call for innovative projects that prioritize lower-carbon architecture through the use of local, bio-based, and environmentally responsible materials.
For this issue of Dearq, "Tectonic Matter," we are seeking contributions that treat tectonics not as a style or a fetish of detail, but as a rigorous field in which architecture's material realities, its sourcing, craft, labor, structural systems, fabrication protocols, and performance criteria become inseparable from how space is perceived, inhabited, and understood. Who can submit: We welcome submissions from architects, historians, theorists, engineers, educators, and researchers. Interdisciplinary and context-specific approaches are encouraged, provided they remain anchored in tectonics as a conceptual and practical field of architectural invention. The editors invite submissions of research articles, case studies, visual essays, and projects will be accepted, provided they are original and unpublished and comply with the journal's editorial policy. Guest editors: Nader Tehrani (The Cooper Union, USA) Julián Palacio (The Cooper Union, USA) Rafael Villazón (Universidad de los Andes, Colombia)
ArchDaily is looking for a Projects Team Lead to guide the curation and strategic development of one of the platform's core content pillars: built projects. This role sits at the intersection of editorial and architectural judgment, data-driven strategy, and team leadership, shaping how architecture is selected, presented, and amplified to a global audience.
The Projects Team Lead will oversee the direction, performance, and evolution of project content on ArchDaily. This includes defining curation standards, supporting a distributed team of curators, and aligning editorial output with broader platform goals.

Frank Lloyd Wright’s Martin House (Buffalo, New York) is pleased to announce a call for applications to its Creative Residency Program. The residency provides individuals from multiple disciplines a thought-provoking environment in which to produce new works of the imagination inspired by one of the great examples of 20th century architecture. Applications to the 2027 season will open on March 30, 2026 and close on April 24, 2026. They will be accepted in two distinct categories. The Artist Program supports the development and presentation of creative works as they relate to Martin House. The Researcher Program provides opportunities to conduct research that will lead to published texts or projects in various fields, again as they relate to Frank Lloyd Wright and Martin House. Creative makers who are selected to participate will generally spend 2-4 weeks onsite either consecutively or incrementally within the residency term: June - October, 2027. Residents are also expected to deliver a free public program, performance, exhibition, or other creative presentation in order to share their Martin House-inspired work with the larger public. Residents will receive a stipend of $5,000. Travel expenses of up to $1,000 will also be provided to residents who are from outside the Buffalo-Niagara region. The Creative Residency Program is an opportunity for the Martin House to respond to and engage with our community. We anticipate that it will lead to more robust interpretations of Frank Lloyd Wright, the Martin House, and the people who once lived and worked here so as to expand the dialogue as to what great architecture is and why it matters.
There’s a housing crisis. Construction projects are facing delays. There’s concern about the declining role of the architect. Despite this, remarkable architecture is still being created.

When I recently found myself flooded, during the ever-expanding shopping frenzy of the so-called Black Friday season, with offers branded as Singles' Day deals, it struck me: singles have become a remarkably powerful force in our societies. The prominence and intensity of Singles' Day—a celebration that began among students at a Chinese university in the early 1990s and has since grown into one of the largest global shopping festivals—underscores that singles are no longer just a demographic statistic, but a transformative presence reshaping cities and economies worldwide. That is why we aim to investigate, with this new issue of MONU entitled "Singles Urbanism", how singles transform cities and to understand the spatial consequences of life lived alone, and the growing prevalence of living outside the traditional structures of coupledom and family, and its urban influence.
Call for Action Launch - 6th biennale svizzera del territorio
The 6TH biennale svizzera del territorio, organised by the Istituto Internazionale d’Architettura in Lugano, is launching a call for action on the theme “handle with care”. The call is open to professionals of all ages and from all over the world. Building, demolishing, building again... that is easy. But caring for things, making them last, keeping them alive, repairing them. That is a difficult task. You have to observe, listen, pay attention. Study, understand. Recognise what exists, even if it’s fragile, even if it’s not perfect. You need allies. It’s a task for those who know from experience the consequences of destruction, who know the price of maintenance, who know a thing of beauty is a joy forever. If you can handle it, caring is power. Proposals can be of many kinds, ranging from installations, constructed or transformative interventions, to performances, artistic works, or architectural visions.
