About Shared Spaces

This year marks the 15th anniversary of Archtober, New York City's month-long Festival of architecture and design! We are excited to announce our theme: Shared Spaces.

This theme considers a world where space and resources are shared responsibly, inviting participants to re-envision how we move, connect, and live together in New York City.
‍
‍Shared Spaces also points to the cast of collaborators who are actively shaping and experiencing the city, such as architecture firms, urban developers, civic organizations, activists, and the public. It holds our collective wonder, anxiety, learning, and joy, making room for the complexity of the human experience in 2025.
