▶️ PARAFENO – INTERIOR MAGAZINE: With his solo exhibition ‘Stars Say No’, the visual artist Parafeno presents a digital installation that unfolds around his personal experiences of growth and search for identity. Across five screens his works combine artificial intelligence and 3D through digital collages, resulting in a surreal and ethereal style typical of dreams or the distorted and imaginative perception of a child.

▶️ LEXUS – FABIÁN ÑIGUEZ: ÁGORA is inspired by ancient Greek culture, with its flowing lines and dynamic structure, it invites everyone to enter a universe of aesthetic wonders. Every architectural detail seems to whisper the history of ancient Greece, in an open, cosmopolitan and groundbreaking space, where the main exhibition area becomes a blank canvas to highlight the magnificence of the LBX and turn it into “Everyday Extraordinary”.

▶️ SIXTY PRO – PATRICIA BUSTOS: ‘Inspired by the architecture of Carlo Scarpa, “Mecano mobile” represents a new way of conceiving modular kitchens made up of a structure organised in the shape of a Meccano that perfectly meshes the storage volumes with the seating and bar areas.

▶️ NOMETRI / GIRA – ANA MARÍA FERNÁNDEZ: The art piece is created by Paola Fortes, Mexican artist based in Italy, whose stamp always based on surrealism begins with a pencil sketch where these peculiar and magical sea beings were created, a process that evolved to the extent of being able to print it on mosaic tesserae creating a great puzzle where this immersive experience takes us to the bottom of the sea, to receive the light of the sky that crosses the waters, and allows us to walk on its bottom as if we were part of that kingdom.

▶️ PINTURAS VALENTINE – KAMILO MORALES: This is a square red wooden box containing 12 pieces or modules (parallelograms) of different formats that together form a cube measuring 80 x 80 x 80 cm. Outside the box you can interact with them and put together the desired composition or shapes. The spectator is invited to intervene in the space and inhabit it, as if it were a child’s game. This project arises as an exercise to understand the three-dimensional, the sculptural and the spatial through the geometric and the infinite possibilities that this allows.

▶️ LEXUS – LIDIA CAO: The main concept is the creation of a new universe full of freshness and nature, highlighting its importance through new technology. With organic shapes to give the sensation of movement and the idea of creating a path.
