The details that change a room: Inside the new ARCHIDECO Magazine

Reclaimed timber, patterned floors and architectural hardware bring the forthcoming issue into close focus.

A wall changes as the afternoon light moves across it. A floor establishes a rhythm before the furniture arrives. A door handle leaves an impression through its weight and texture.

The new ARCHIDECO Magazine Fall–Winter 2026/27 looks closely at these encounters. Across its surfaces and details stories, materials take an active role in shaping how a room looks, feels and works.

A Wall with a Previous Life

Wonderwall Studios begins with salvaged timber: weathered beams, old flooring and other wood carrying traces of earlier use. Carved and assembled into three-dimensional panels, the material retains variations in grain, colour and texture.

The finished surface responds to light. Relief creates shadows that shift during the day, giving even a restrained room something to watch.

Elsewhere in the issue, ADJ’s Modular Panel System brings pattern into contact with another consideration: acoustic comfort. Designed by Egidio Panzera, its decorative, sound-absorbing modules allow a wall composition to influence the experience of the space around it.

Geometry Underfoot

Latvia-based VITCERA revisits Victorian floor patterns through triangles, squares and hexagons in full-body porcelain. Borders and repeated shapes can give an entrance a precise identity.

MIAMILANO approaches geometry through a different material vocabulary, exploring related patterns in marble, terracotta and oak. The continuity lies in the composition, even as the surface changes.

The Part You Reach For

Turnstyle Designs works with hand-stitched leather, brass and textured grips. Buster + Punch brings machined metal and distinctive knurling to handles, switches and fittings.

These are details encountered repeatedly, often without much thought. Our next issue gives them the attention they deserve.
