Obra Blanca Expo 2026

Obra Blanca Expo runs October 13–15, 2026 at Expo Santa Fe, Mexico City.

What it is

Obra Blanca describes itself as an "exhibition of finishes and design products for architecture". It is a three-day meeting point where suppliers of finishing materials and design products show to the people who specify them: architects, interior designers, builders and developers. The organizer lists "+190 exhibitors in over 27,000m2 of exhibition".

The program is split into themed cycles: living space, sustainability and innovation, and lighting. Technical talks and an evening series of international conferences run alongside them.

One feature is the CMF Forecast Obra Blanca 2027, a color, material and finish study developed with The Color Authority. Its trends are presented at Espacio Obra Blanca during the show.
