On 15th and 16th October 2019, CONTEXT will jointly organise with Textile ETP (European Textile Technology platform), IVGT (German Technical Textile Association) and FKT (German Textile Research Council) an International Seminar on Advanced and Smart Textiles in Architecture, Construction & Living Environments.

The 2-day event will take place in Frankfurt, Germany. It will bring together researchers, designers and architects as well as companies from the technical textiles and construction sector to exchange experiences on new textile-based solutions for architecture, construction, infrastructures, indoor and outdoor living spaces and also the evolving end market needs in these sectors.

On the 15th, a conference on textile innovation in construction and architecture will be held where twelve experts from different European countries will present their innovative projects and products.

On the 16th, CONTEXT has organized a working session that will bring together researchers, companies and users from the building, architecture and interior design sectors to discuss on the possibilities to overcome the different challenges faced by textile materials in these sectors, at technological, industrial and/or market acceptance levels. This is the second workshop organized by CONTEXT, the first, targeted to sports and wearables, took place in Porto, in April.

In the framework of the conference, AEI Tèxtils, as its coordinator, will present the CONTEXT network.
