The Architect’26 Press Conference officially set the stage for the future of Thailand’s architectural landscape, marking the return of ASEAN’s largest architecture, design, and building technology exposition for its 38th edition. Under the concept “SATI : WISDOM : PROMPT”, the event encourages attendees to understand the present, recognize identity and cultural roots, and look ahead with mindfulness and wisdom as human intelligence intersects with the age of Artificial Intelligence.
During the press event, organizers unveiled key highlights for this year’s edition—from major exhibitions and knowledge-sharing forums featuring globally renowned architects to comprehensive showcases of design and construction innovations from over 1,000 international exhibitors. Attendees were also invited to keep an eye on the rising trend of Wellness & Longevity-by-Design, an emerging direction poised to create new opportunities in architecture and construction, emphasizing well-being, long-term health, and sustainable quality of life.
As evening arrived, guests enjoyed the warm and lively atmosphere of the Kick-Off Cocktail Party, now in its third edition. This pre-event gathering served as a bridge that strengthens the bond between architects and exhibitors, complemented by interactive activities such as themed photo booths—perfect for social media posts with hashtags like #Architect26 #KickOffCocktailParty #SatiWisdomPrompt—as well as product showcases from seven leading brands ahead of their full-scale presentation at Architect’26.
A special surprise awaited attendees with a performance by members of the Thailand Interior Designers’ Association (TIDA), who stepped out of their roles as designers and onto the stage as vocalists—bringing fun and excitement to the night. The celebration concluded with a heartfelt mini-concert by renowned singer New Napassorn, leaving guests with a memorable finale.
The Kick-Off Cocktail Party would not have been possible without the generous support of Digitech One CO., LTD., Chen Brother International Group Co., Ltd., Blue International Co., Ltd., and CNP Plastic Industries Co., Ltd.
Get ready to experience Architect’26 under the theme “SATI : WISDOM : PROMPT”, happening from 28 April – 3 May 2026, from 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM at Challenger Hall, IMPACT Muang Thong Thani.
