Our Exhibition Showroom
TRACE x NYC DESIGN FESTIVAL
For the exhibition TRACE, UN-BRIEFED presents a process-driven online showcase exploring how space is recorded, interpreted, and reimagined through fragments, movements, lines, and digital narratives. Presented as part of NYCxDESIGN Festival 2026, the exhibition brings together interdisciplinary works across architecture, technology × design, graphic design, digital media, and spatial storytelling.
The selected works reflect a diverse range of creative approaches, from architectural drawings and urban observations to interactive experiences, visual systems, speculative interfaces, and media-based explorations. Rather than focusing only on finished outcomes, TRACE highlights the act of tracing as a critical and imaginative method — a way to uncover hidden relationships, document spatial memories, and construct new narratives around the built environment.
As an online exhibition, TRACE unfolds without a single physical location. Through a distributed digital showroom, each project contributes to a collective mapping of ideas, forming an accessible and evolving archive of spatial thought. We invite visitors to explore this collection as a shared digital space where individual trajectories intersect, and where traces become not only marks of the past, but starting points for future interpretations.
