The event features over 35 spaces designed by renowned architects and interior designers, showcasing the latest industry trends across 6,000 m² of the school building; nine of these spaces are decorated with products from the Hunter Douglas blinds and shades division.

The IAB-MG Urban Kindness Award was conceived, developed, and launched by the Minas Gerais Department of the Institute of Architects of Brazil 24 years ago, in 1993. Since then, its objective has been to encourage diverse initiatives from both individuals and legal entities that contribute to improving the quality of urban life. The core idea is to reward and value the small acts and attitudes of citizens that help make city life better every day. Urban Kindness refers to attitudes, gestures, and interventions that foster a new perspective on the city, promoting the preservation of its cultural and natural heritage and expanding the concept of citizenship.
