Sala 45 – By Devesa & Agenjo

KASBAH

The studio is formed by Ane Devesa and José Agenjo, two friends and professionals who met at Casa Decor and, after years of individual careers, decided to join forces to present themselves at the 2020 edition. What began as a one-off collaboration led to the opening of their showroom located at Guzmán el Bueno 23, where we can also enjoy their kitchen furniture brand, TERRA Cocinas.

In their most recent participation at Casa Decor, TERRA moved audiences with its return to the origins: a functional, but above all welcoming kitchen, which has given rise to the anniversary hall at ARCO, transferring those values to this spacious lounge transformed into a refuge.

As is customary, a Mediterranean spirit permeates every corner: noble materials, textiles, and special attention to ceramics, their signature material. Craftsmanship is combined with contemporary design, functionality with poetry. Presiding over the space is an oil-painted mural created by the studio for the third collection edited by CR Class—an evocative landscape that opens a window in this oasis and invites us to enjoy the surroundings.

In KASBAH, every area can be felt as home. A space open to conversation, but also invites reflection and calm.

A Very Welcoming Lounge (AVWL) – by the Government of Castilla-La Mancha

Tránsitos. De la tierra al arte

“Tránsitos. De la tierra al arte” is a project by the Government of Castilla-La Mancha in which artistic practice explores the transitions between craftsmanship and contemporary art, between thought and materiality.
This first edition focuses on the act of weaving, using warp and weft as a creative process to present three co-authored projects. Each of them has been developed by an artisan from the Legado Artesano brand of Castilla-La Mancha together with an artist from the national art scene.

Ramón Cobo, a specialist in wool treatment, and contemporary artist Irene Infantes create an inhabitable piece in which tradition merges with a contemporary language to tell a story of recovery and resilience in the preservation of the craft.

Juan Manuel Marcilla, an expert in wicker and other natural fibers, together with artist and gastronome Carles Tarrassó, propose a poetic work that transports us to the interior of the territory of Castilla-La Mancha and to the water currents that traverse it, hidden beneath our feet.

Master weaver Sergio Rosa and visual artist Maya Pita-Romero present a work in which the organic and the fluid intertwine with traditional textiles, forming an ecosystem that seems alive and invites us to reflect on intimacy, care, and the body itself.

This project, curated by Joaquín Ruiz Espinosa, is exhibited in the AVWL hall, designed by Fernando Sánchez using works by artisans of Castilla-La Mancha. Both have worked to create a space in which the pieces coexist under a calm, subdued light, conceived from the warmth of the earth’s interior.

Sala Fundación – by SO Arquitectura

SO Arquitectura and its contemporary cloister: a sensory refuge at ARCO

At the heart of ARCO, SO Arquitectura delivers a quiet and precise intervention: the Fundación Room transformed into a contemporary cloister. The choice is deliberate. In the Middle Ages, cloisters were spaces for contemplation, dialogue and reflection on what truly matters. Here, that spirit is reimagined as a sanctuary where slowing down becomes an essential tool. The studio’s philosophy, “Creating a lifestyle at a slower pace”, finds its fullest expression in this space.

The journey begins in soft shadow. Darkness acts as both filter and threshold, inviting the visitor to lower their internal rhythm. A corridor of muted light guides the gaze gently into a new tempo. Music shapes the experience, shifting with the time of day. A bespoke fragrance subtly awakens the olfactory senses, while textured fabrics and surfaces call for tactile exploration.

At the center, light unfolds. The luminous patio breathes as a small living organism: suspended fabrics capture and animate clarity; restrained vegetation brings grounding and calm. The gaze rests and time expands naturally.

This cloister offers visitors a change of rhythm. An interval designed to remind us that seeing with depth requires an interior disposition that emerges when light and shadow meet in the right balance.
