TOP 10 Innovation Premieres at BIG Architecture 2025

Selected by architects at the Trade Show in Portorož

The BIG Architecture Trade Show 2025 in Portorož (May 22–23) once again reaffirmed its purpose: to bring meaningful innovation closer to those who shape the built environment. Carefully curated and thoughtfully designed, the event showcased cutting-edge materials, technologies, and ideas — tailored for architects and interior designers.

The exhibitors were arranged across four distinct thematic modules:
Building envelopes · Building systems · Interior design · Services & ICT

From smart façades to intelligent lighting and sustainable construction systems, the Trade Show offered more than just products — it created space for direct dialogue, professional validation, and real inspiration. With over 3,000 visitors from 41 countries, it served as a regional and international hub for architectural exchange.

What made this year special was the active role of the professional audience. We asked them to choose the innovations that truly stood out.
The result is a list shaped by experience, interest, and expertise on the spot.

We proudly present the TOP 10 Trade Show Innovation Premieres 2025 — selected for their design excellence, innovative edge, and sustainable relevance.
