Rethinking architecture's stage: what to expect from the Architect Show 2025
The Architect Show (tAS), organized by Medexpo, is set to return to Athens for its seventh edition in December 2025, continuing its role as a meeting point for professionals across architecture, design, and construction. The 2024 edition of tAS drew 6,895 visitors to the Metropolitan Expo, bringing together professionals and creatives from Greece and beyond. Over 170 brands participated in the exhibition, offering a broad spectrum of products and technologies related to contemporary architecture and design. The tAS_Talks program featured over 40 discussions, co-curated by designboom, ArchDaily, and Architonic, with contributions from notable voices including Assemble’s Anthony Engi Meacock, who explored the UK collective’s socially engaged practice.

ARCHITONIC
The comfort of strangers (or how the Greeks do it better)
The Greeks have a word for it. Philoxenia. Meaning good, old-fashioned, loving hospitality. Especially to strangers. (Raise your hand if you think we need more of that in the world right now.) It’s probably because philoxenia was as much the stuff of last December’s the Architect Show in Athens as the design brands exhibiting there that I found myself leaving for my flight back to Zurich with an honest-to-God warmth inside me. And it wasn’t the ouzo.Some fairs manage to hit the sweet spot. The Architect Show (tAS), the landmark design event for Southeast Europe, held annually in the Greek capital, is one of them. The two-day event, whose 2025 outing, again in December, will mark its seventh edition, manages – thanks to its medium size, clever modular exhibitionary format and baked-in conviviality – to provide a platform where design professionals queue round the block to get in.
