ARCNOMA and Architecture Nomad PLLC Engage Global Investment Leaders at EXPO REAL 2026 in Munich
MUNICH, GERMANY – Christopher Mancia, founder of the international research studio ARCNOMA and the licensed New York practice Architecture Nomad PLLC, recently attended EXPO REAL 2026, Europe's largest trade fair for real estate, investment, and infrastructure. Held at Messe München from October 5 to 7, 2026, the international gathering brought together global developers, institutional investors, urban planners, and policy leaders to navigate the evolving real estate and built environment landscape.
Representing both the research lab and the local practice, Mancia engaged in key discussions across EXPO REAL's central forums, including Transform & Beyond and the newly introduced InfrastructureNow platform. The conversations focused on decarbonization, smart building technologies, resilient housing models, and the integration of social and energy infrastructure with modern urban development. Participation in this international summit directly connects to the studio's core ecosystem and its overarching Architecture of Belonging framework:
ARCNOMA: Global Research, Systems Innovation, and Decarbonization
For the international research studio, EXPO REAL provided a vital global platform to exchange insights on responsive material systems, sustainable district energy, and human-centric spatial strategies. Engaging with international startups, technology pioneers, and research networks at the Transform & Beyond forum reinforces ARCNOMA's commitment to advancing building science and exploring how scalable architecture can foster social cohesion in rapidly changing urban environments.
