7ZNAIL is a space for design, art, and architecture. Our hallmark is creating exhibition spaces in unconventional and timeless contexts, establishing a hub for the development of creative visual experiences. The space focuses primarily on the visual work of creatives, designers, visual artists, architects, collective projects, and new media, fostering an environment for exchange, exhibition, and promotion that connects with new audiences. It is open to contemporary creatives, hosting varied, transient, and dynamic exhibitions with the goal of generating mobility and circulation within a space centered on creative dissemination and promotion.

In October 2018, the second edition of the Wood and Architecture exhibition, organized by the Universidad San Sebastián School of Architecture in Puerto Montt, was held in the main hall of the Puerto Montt Historical Museum. The exhibition featured work resulting from an invitation to ten young Chilean architecture firms to participate in a small wood architecture brief: a mountain shelter for a Patagonian national park. The images, plans, and models from these exercises in wood exploration, alongside models, drawings, and photographs of various expressions of woodworking by students and faculty of the USS School of Architecture, were visited by more than 3,500 people.
