With Gabriel Tan’s “Soft Stone Sofa,” ClassiCon is introducing a modular sofa system for the first time at the Salone del Mobile 2026.

In our series "Spotlight on Women Architects", we regularly present the work of female architects – such as Aline Hielscher, who, after taking her first steps into self-employment in Paris, established herself as a fixture in practice and discourse in her hometown Leipzig.

Marcus Götschl was one of the exciting new discoveries at this year's SaloneSatellite in Milan. In this interview, he tells us why he is fascinated by sophisticated designs and when design becomes relevant to him.

The film E.1027 – Eileen Gray and the House by the Sea will be released in cinemas at the end of October. Director Beatrice Minger and co-director Christoph Schaub tell us how they aim to make the architect and designer's perspective experienceable through docufiction.

Curated by Wilfried Wang, Carolina Leite, and Peter Adam, the exhibition offered an in-depth insight into the design by the Modernist visionary.
