Expo Desarrollo Inmobiliario: The Real Estate Show is the most important real estate event in Mexico and Latin America. Taking place this year on May 23rd and 24th at the Westin Santa Fe in Mexico City, the two-day event will bring together industry members, experts, and decision-makers to analyze the opportunities and challenges facing the industry and the country as they navigate the complex situation of recent years.
The Student Exhibition, an event coordinated by the students of the Faculty of Architecture (FA), will take place from April 17 to 21, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and is open to the general public. Centered on the theme of "Another School," it invites the community to exhibit and explore the collective spectrum of the Faculty of Architecture in terms of community, ideas, and inquiries. The program consists of various events that seek to share knowledge and experience, encouraging the expression of individual and collective identities through a showcase of projects, free from curation or divisions.
The concept is DISRUPTIA, a unique event aimed at showcasing the latest in technology—including artificial intelligence, immersive installations, augmented reality, the metaverse, neuroarchitecture, NFTs, and blockchain—to explore how these advancements will impact the lighting and architecture industries.
From June 28 to July 2, 2026, Barcelona will host the UIA World Congress of Architects 2026, becoming a true international open laboratory for architecture that will attract more than 10,000 professionals, representatives of the academic community, and students from around the world to discuss the future of the planet and the role of architecture in the most urgent and necessary upcoming transitions.
LIGA Space for Architecture presents the exhibition Unidad Vecinal by Departamento del Distrito, a Mexican/American firm founded by Francisco Quiñones and Nathan Friedman in 2017, whose practice spans architecture, curatorial work, and academia. From an expanded view of the discipline, their work explores the multiple relationships between subjects, objects, technologies, and politics, articulating spatial investigations that connect diverse scales, temporalities, and geographies. Free from formal or cultural prejudices, Departamento del Distrito creates colorful and provocative architecture that combines precise craftsmanship with commercial and industrial components such as printed curtains, LED signage, plastic tarps, steel scaffolding, solar panels, and folding chairs. Their critical and situated approach champions design as a tool for imagining alternative and collective futures.
What can it mean to live collectively? Unidad Vecinal rethinks the traditional domestic space by introducing a flexible architecture that, rather than simply being inhabited, invites continuous activation. Conceived as a mutable stage within the LIGA space, the installation proposes an alternative to the traditional domestic prototype—a device that transforms collectively. Through various uses—rest, work, gathering—it seeks to test other forms of community. During the exhibition, the installation will be activated by an extensive public program that will include everything from talks and film screenings to gatherings for leisure and rest. These activities aim to explore and challenge the boundaries between the intimate and the common, the performative and the habitable, the individual and the collective. All activities will be announced on social media and will be free and open to the public.
