In collaboration with the Leading Brands of Spain Forum (FMRE) and AD España Magazine, ARCOmadrid is launching a new call for architects, designers, interior designers, and other creative professionals to design the GUEST Lounge for the fair, organised by IFEMA MADRID, which will take place from 3 - 7 March 2027. 

The GUEST Lounge at ARCOmadrid is one of the fair´s most iconic spaces, conceived as a meeting point for art, design, and innovation. It is designed as a unique project each year to welcome national and international guests, collectors and industry professionals.

Applications can be submitted until 7 September. A specialist panel of judges will select three finalists, who will each receive a grant of 1,500 euros to develop their proposals. The deliberations will take place in October, with the winning project being announced in November.

Once again, the GUEST Lounge at ARCOmadrid 2027 will be one of the fair’s standout spaces, offering remarkable visibility as a meeting point for professionals and visitors. This will be reinforced by the editorial support of AD España, the leading publication in the fields of architecture and design.

Previous editions have featured contributions from studios such as Manuel Bouzas + salazarsequeromedina, mesura, Estudio Burr, Hanghar and estudio Diir, helping to establish the GUEST Lounge's reputation and profile in the field of contemporary design.
