Some design decisions begin with a drawing. Others begin with the feel of a surface, the depth of a glaze, or the way light moves across a bathroom wall. Cevisama belongs to this material world, where architects, designers, manufacturers, and buyers explore the elements that shape everyday living. For professionals following international trade fairs, its 2026 chapter requires particular attention: the confirmed event is 360 by Cevisama, a new format joining Valencia’s wider interiors showcase. This guide explains what is confirmed, which conversations deserve attention, and how to approach the visit with a clear professional purpose.

Cevisama Details
360 by Cevisama takes place from September 28 to October 1, 2026, at Feria Valencia in Valencia, Spain. It brings bathroom equipment and architectural materials into the same visit as Feria Hábitat València, Textilhogar, and Espacio Cocina SICI. The organizer presents it as a new project, making that distinction essential when consulting older Cevisama information. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
Trade show: 360 by Cevisama.

What is Cevisama, and what changes in 2026?
Cevisama’s established identity centers on ceramics, bathroom equipment, and related industries. Its earlier exhibition structure also covered natural stone, machinery, and installation materials. That background explains its relevance to professionals who need to understand both the visual character of a product and the processes behind it. The legacy Cevisama website remains useful for this context. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
In 2026, the opportunity is to consider these products within a broader interior. A bathroom finish can be assessed alongside furniture, textiles, lighting, and kitchen design. For an architect developing a private residence or a designer working on a boutique hotel, that proximity can support a more coherent approach to specification.
It also changes how the visit should be planned. Professionals accustomed to treating an annual event as a familiar route through familiar halls should begin again with the current catalog. The new format should be judged on its confirmed participants and program, without assuming that every element of the earlier exhibition continues.
Previous edition context: Cevisama 2025
The previous traditional Cevisama edition ran from February 24 to 28, 2025. Its program included Hotel Cevisama and an Interior Design, Architecture and Contract Forum. These provided a setting for discussions about hospitality, materiality, and the relationship between products and occupied spaces. The official 2025 press agenda documents that earlier program. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
Planning perspective: An annual event can change its name, calendar, and exhibition model. For 2026, use the current 360 by Cevisama information rather than transferring February dates or historic arrangements into a new itinerary.

Meet the Speakers
The relevant 2026 speakers appear in the shared València Inspira Diseño agenda. They should not be described as a separate, exclusively Cevisama lineup. The organizer also labels the schedule provisional and subject to updates. Three participants offer particularly useful starting points for readers interested in thoughtful residential and hospitality design. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
Juan Carlos Baumgartner, spAce
Juan Carlos Baumgartner is associated with spAce, whose work includes an interest in the relationship between architecture and neuroscience. The practice’s official website provides background on this approach. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
For visitors to design trade fairs, the useful question is how ideas about human experience become practical decisions. Consider a hotel lobby: where does a guest pause, how easily is reception understood, and which spaces allow a quieter conversation? These questions help move a design discussion beyond visual impact toward the quality of occupation.
Alicia Cambra, Cambra Buró
Alicia Cambra leads Cambra Buró, an interior design studio with experience in hospitality and high-end residential projects. This background makes her work relevant to readers navigating the relationship between domestic comfort and the more demanding conditions of commercial interiors. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
A useful way to approach such expertise is to consider what a project asks of its materials. A private bathroom and a hotel bathroom may share an aesthetic language, yet their cleaning routines, replacement requirements, and intensity of use can differ considerably. Good specification begins by recognizing those differences.
Soledat Berbegal, Actiu
Soledat Berbegal is an adviser and brand reputation director at Actiu. The company’s published discussions connect workplace design with inclusion, comfort, and technology. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
Her perspective is relevant beyond the office. Residential developments, hotel lounges, and shared amenities increasingly require designers to accommodate different activities within one setting. At trade fairs, this encourages a better question than whether a product looks adaptable: how well does it support the people who will actually use it?
How to prepare for a speaker session
Review one project or area of work before attending. Bring a question tied to your own brief, such as material replacement, acoustic comfort, or the transition between public and private space. A focused question is more likely to produce a useful answer than a broad request for the next trend.
Cevisama Talks and Program
The official 2026 activities agenda connects talks, presentations, and installations across the concurrent trade fairs. The following selection draws from that shared program. Confirm the final day, room, and time directly before attending.
Architecture, wellbeing, and climate adaptation
“Neurohacks para la arquitectura”: Juan Carlos Baumgartner of spAce is listed for a session on applying neuroscience to spatial design.
“Nuevos desafíos, nuevas respuestas”: Alicia Cambra of Cambra Buró is scheduled to address sustainability and climate adaptation in Spain.
“Diseñar espacios que mejoran la vida”: An Actiu roundtable moderated by Soledat Berbegal includes Juan Carlos Baumgartner among its participants.
These sessions are listed within the Ágora nude program. Their descriptions and scheduling remain subject to the organizer’s updates. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
For an architect, the editorial connection between these topics is straightforward: a successful space must do more than communicate an image. It must respond to climate, allow people to find their way, and remain comfortable through changing patterns of use. The strongest questions concern how those ambitions are tested and documented.
Visitors should listen for the difference between an aspiration and an evaluated result. When a project is described as restorative, adaptable, or environmentally responsible, ask what decisions support that description. The answer may involve the layout, construction system, product selection, or the experience of occupants after completion.
Hotel Hábitat and the experience of a complete interior
The 2026 exhibition includes Hotel Hábitat by Joaquín Homs, located at Level 2, Pavilion 6. The organizer describes it as an exploration of contemporary living through a hotel setting, with contributions from several studios and companies. This is a current installation, distinct from Hotel Cevisama 2025. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
For visitors, a complete installation offers a different form of learning from an individual stand. It allows materials to be considered in relation to one another. A textured wall may feel balanced beside a quiet textile, while the same surface could become visually demanding when combined with several competing finishes.
Look closely at transitions: the edge of a vanity, the junction between flooring materials, and the placement of lighting around a mirror. These are useful places to test whether an attractive concept could become a convincing built interior.
Previous program: a documented reference, not a current booking
Cevisama’s 2025 forum listed Javier Jiménez of Studio Animal, Leyre Ortuño and Juan Luis Medina of MIL Studios, Natali Canas of El Equipo Creativo, and Eva Prego and Cutu Mazuelos of Stone Designs. These names belong to the previous edition; their inclusion here does not imply a 2026 speaking engagement. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
Build your program around one project question
A productive visit to an annual event does not require attending every talk. Choose a question that matters to your work, then use the exhibition and conference program to examine it from several directions. For a hotel renovation, that question might be how to improve the guest experience while limiting future maintenance.
A useful note-taking method
Record the idea, the evidence offered, and the implication for your project. Keep those three points separate. This prevents an engaging presentation from becoming an unsupported specification decision and makes it easier to share useful findings with colleagues afterward.
Editorial perspective: The most valuable exchange at trade fairs often happens when an appealing design idea meets a difficult practical question.
Materials, Exhibitors, and the Design Questions That Matter
The current 360 by Cevisama preview names companies including Neolith, Grupo Porcelanosa, Bathco, APE Grupo, Noken, Dune Cerámica, EMAC, Sonae Arauco, Cevica, and Ecoclay. This is a selected group from the organizer’s published preview, not a complete exhibitor directory. Consult the official event website and its linked 2026 catalog for the full participating offer.

Read a surface beyond its photograph
Material led trade fairs reward close observation. A photograph can communicate color and pattern, but it provides less certainty about touch, edge quality, reflection, or the relationship between repeated pieces. The physical encounter remains valuable precisely because it exposes these quieter characteristics.
When reviewing a surface, ask to see more than one sample. Consider whether variation is intentional and whether it suits the intended space. A strongly patterned finish may work beautifully as a focal point, yet require greater care across a large floor or a compact bathroom.
For a premium residence, request a sample suitable for review under the project’s actual lighting. Exhibition lighting can shape perception. A finish that appears warm and restrained on a stand may read differently beside the chosen timber, paint, and daylight conditions at home.
The Specialists in Bespoke
Turn your Designs into Reality with Nolita Harbour
A bathroom brings several disciplines into a small area. Architecture establishes proportion and circulation; products influence touch and use; lighting affects visibility and atmosphere. The designer’s task is to make these decisions feel coherent.
At trade fairs, allow time for functional questions. How easily can a fitting be operated? Can essential components be reached for maintenance? What replacement parts are available, and through which supplier? These questions are especially important when a beautiful specification will be repeated across many hotel rooms.
For private clients, a luxurious result can depend on details that barely appear in photography. Comfortable reach, sufficient storage, and a well considered cleaning routine all contribute to the daily experience. Treat these as design priorities from the beginning.
Ask for evidence behind environmental claims
Environmental language deserves careful attention at an annual event. A product’s appearance does not establish its environmental performance, and broad descriptions provide little basis for comparing alternatives.
Ask suppliers which documents are available and what they cover. Relevant questions may concern manufacturing location, product composition, service life, maintenance, or independently verified environmental information. Where technical assessment is required, involve the appropriate specialist before making a final selection.
Define the application: Identify where and how the product will be used.
Request comparable information: Review alternatives against the same project requirements.
Understand maintenance: Ask which care methods preserve the finish and warranty.
Consider replacement: Establish how damaged elements could be repaired or substituted.
Record uncertainties: Keep unanswered questions visible in the specification process.
Connect material choice with long term property quality
For real estate professionals, the exhibition offers an opportunity to examine what supports a property’s quality after its initial presentation. Attractive finishes may help communicate an interior’s character, but long term value also depends on suitability, execution, and upkeep.
This is where trade fairs can become useful working environments. Bring the architect, procurement lead, or operator into the conversation early. A product that satisfies one discipline may create difficulties for another, and those conflicts are easier to resolve before a specification is finalized.
The most useful outcome is a manageable selection of well understood options. A smaller material palette, supported by clear technical information and reliable contacts, is often more valuable than a large collection of disconnected discoveries.

How to Register for Cevisama
How to register as a visitor
Begin on the 360 by Cevisama website and follow its visitor link to the shared registration page. Online registration is free for accredited sector professionals and remains available during the fair. The published box office prices are €10 for one day or €20 for all fair days.
Select the current event. Check that the registration screen refers to the September 28 to October 1, 2026 dates.
Enter your professional details. Describe your role and organization accurately.
Review the admission conditions. Confirm what your chosen registration permits.
Retain the confirmation. Save the issued entry document where it can be accessed easily.
Check separate activities. Ask whether a particular presentation, meeting, or hosted event needs additional registration.
These practical steps help prevent avoidable delays. They are particularly useful for international teams registering several colleagues, where inconsistent company details or missed confirmation emails can complicate arrival.
How to register as an exhibitor
Prospective exhibitors should use the current event’s exhibiting inquiry and contact form. The organizer advertises both turnkey participation and open spaces for custom stand design. Availability and commercial conditions must be confirmed directly; a visitor ticket does not constitute an exhibitor application.
Prepare a short brief before making contact. Explain your product category, intended audience, display requirements, and commercial objectives. A company presenting large surfaces will have different installation needs from one displaying small fittings or digital services.
Request a written proposal that separates space rental from additional services. Depending on the display, questions may include electricity, lighting, handling, cleaning, storage, and dismantling. Do not assume these are included unless the offer says so.
What is the exhibitor registration deadline?
A universal final exhibitor deadline was not confirmed in the public information reviewed. With the 2026 opening approaching, any late application requires direct confirmation from the organizer. For future participation, ask when bookings open and when technical documentation must be submitted.
Who is the event looking for?
The published visitor profile emphasizes distributors, architects, designers, and interior designers. Its focus on specification and distribution makes the format relevant to professional sourcing and project development.
For developers and hospitality owners, attendance becomes more useful when linked to a defined project. Bring an outline of the building type, market position, project stage, and procurement needs. Suppliers can respond more precisely when they understand the intended application.
Private clients interested in commissioning a residence should check eligibility directly. An interest in design does not automatically satisfy professional admission conditions. Attending with an appointed design team, where permitted, can also make the material discussions more productive.

Tips before registering
Set three objectives: For example, compare bathroom systems, review surface options, and meet two potential suppliers.
Check team responsibilities: Decide who will assess design, technical performance, and commercial terms.
Contact priority exhibitors: Request meetings instead of relying entirely on spontaneous availability.
Review the program: Leave realistic travel time between halls and sessions.
Prepare a comparison sheet: Record each product’s application, required documentation, lead time, and follow up contact.
For exhibitors, success at trade fairs should also be defined before arrival. Agree on what constitutes a useful lead and how your team will record it. A specific project conversation deserves a different follow up from a general request for a catalog.
For visitors, the same discipline applies. Leave the annual event with clear next steps: which samples to request, which documents to review, and which decisions remain open.
Cevisama FAQs
Is Cevisama still an annual event?
Cevisama has historically occupied an annual place in the sector’s calendar. However, its confirmed 2026 offer is the new 360 by Cevisama format. Do not infer future dates from the historic schedule. Check subsequent announcements before planning another edition.
Is the 2026 event in February?
The confirmed 360 by Cevisama dates are September 28 to October 1, 2026. Older Cevisama pages contain February information associated with earlier editions. Use the current event website for travel planning.
What is the visitor registration deadline?
The organizer says online professional registration remains open during the fair. Register ahead of your visit where possible, allowing time to resolve any eligibility or confirmation questions.
Where should visitors stay?
Choose accommodation around your working itinerary. A location convenient for the venue may suit early appointments, while a city base may better support evening meetings. Compare the complete journey, including transfers and walking, before booking.
The visitor page identifies a hotel collaboration with HOSBEC. Specific availability, rates, and cancellation terms require confirmation when booking.
Is parking available?
Yes. The published options include paid venue parking and free Heron City parking with a shuttle. Venue parking is listed at €0.03 per minute, capped at €18 daily, with a €15.30 advance payment option. Recheck conditions before arrival.
Can visitors use public transportation?
The official visitor guide lists public transportation options. Check the current journey with Metrovalencia or EMT Valencia, especially when coordinating connections with a fixed appointment.
Is the venue accessible?
A complete event specific accessibility guide was not verified in the information reviewed. Contact Feria Valencia before traveling to confirm step free routes, accessible facilities, parking arrangements, and any assistance required. Describe your intended entrance and halls so the response addresses your actual journey.
Are talks available in English?
A universal English language or simultaneous interpretation service was not confirmed in the reviewed program. Check individual sessions with the organizer. International participation alone does not establish the language in which a presentation will be delivered.

How much time should a professional allow?
Allow one focused day for a small number of appointments. Consider two days if you want to compare materials, attend talks, and explore the accompanying trade fairs. This is an editorial planning suggestion, not an official recommended visit length.
Build in time to review findings. A short pause after several supplier meetings can help distinguish genuinely relevant products from those that simply made a strong first impression.
What should visitors bring?
Carry your entry confirmation, identification, comfortable footwear, and a concise project brief. A charged phone and a consistent note taking system are useful. Ask permission before photographing restricted displays, and label permitted images immediately with the supplier and product details.
Can products be ordered at the exhibition?
Discuss purchasing arrangements directly with each supplier. Before committing, clarify pricing, delivery, installation responsibility, and the exact finish or configuration. Trade fairs are effective places to begin procurement conversations, but a display sample does not replace a complete written specification.
Where is the latest exhibitor list?
Follow the 2026 catalog link on the official event website. The shared catalog spans the concurrent trade fairs, so verify each company’s event, hall, and stand rather than treating every listed brand as a Cevisama exhibitor.
What should happen after the visit?
Review contacts while conversations are fresh. Send focused requests for samples and missing documentation, then compare options against the original brief. The value of an annual event becomes clearer when discoveries lead to informed decisions rather than an expanding folder of unused references.
Looking Ahead to Cevisama
Cevisama’s 2026 chapter invites a broader view of the interior. Surfaces and bathroom products can be considered alongside the furnishings and spatial decisions that give a room its character. For architects, designers, and property professionals, the opportunity lies in making those connections carefully.
The most rewarding approach to trade fairs remains both curious and selective. Touch the materials, examine the details, listen to the designers, and ask how each proposal would perform in a real project. Let an attractive discovery begin a conversation that continues beyond the exhibition.
For The Handcrafted Living, enduring design is found in that relationship between imagination and care. A surface should be beautiful, but it should also belong to its setting. A bathroom should feel considered, but it should also support daily life. Approached with those ambitions, this annual event can offer something more lasting than inspiration: a clearer understanding of how to build places people will value over time.
