DAFI AT HOTEL EXPERIENCE 2026

An exploration of design, architecture and hospitality.

DAFI 1962 · ATHENS returns to Hotel Experience for its third edition, taking place on October 17–18, 2026, at Technopolis City of Athens.

This year's edition explores the concept of Elsewhere, taking visitors on a journey through The Maze, an immersive scenographic installation designed by FLUX Office. Inspired by cinematic references and the landscapes of historic hospitality estates, the experience invites visitors to explore new perspectives on space, movement and discovery.

Within this creative setting, DAFI will present two installations, exploring indoor and outdoor living through furniture designed by Ciarmoli Queda.

Located in the Dexamenes building, the presentations will continue DAFI's dialogue with architecture, materiality and contemporary hospitality, bringing together design and craftsmanship in two distinct environments.

A new chapter in an ongoing exploration of how furniture becomes part of the spaces we experience.
