swing \u2014 and there\u2019s still plenty to catch.&nbsp;<strong><a href=https://metropolismag.com/"https:////www.archtober.org/">Archtober 2025<\/a><\/strong>, the city\u2019s annual month-long celebration of architecture and design, is turning 15 this year under the theme&nbsp;<strong>\u201cShared Spaces.\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;From October 15 onward, the lineup gets especially good, featuring panels, pop-ups, conferences, and creative chaos that showcase how design keeps NYC alive, connected, and constantly evolving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Hosted by the&nbsp;<strong><a href=https://metropolismag.com/"https:////www.centerforarchitecture.org/">AIA New York \/ Center for Architecture<\/a><\/strong>, Archtober has grown into a cultural institution of its own \u2014 a living, breathing festival that turns the city into an open studio. This year\u2019s programming digs deep into the ways we share, move, and coexist in urban space. And if you\u2019ve missed the early events, don\u2019t worry \u2014 the best ones are still ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">One of the major highlights lands on&nbsp;<strong>October 17<\/strong>: the&nbsp;<strong><a href=https://metropolismag.com/"https:////metropolismag.com//programs//metropolis-sustainability-lab-conference///">METROPOLIS Sustainability Lab + Conference<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;at Parsons. Themed&nbsp;<strong>\u201cSYNERGY,\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;it brings together top thinkers from design, business, and academia to explore how sustainability, wellness, and creativity intersect in today\u2019s built environment. Expect lively debates, cross-industry ideas, and some of the sharpest minds redefining what \u201cgreen design\u201d really means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Meanwhile, over at the&nbsp;<strong>Center for Architecture<\/strong>, the festival\u2019s beating heart, a brand-new collaboration with&nbsp;<strong><a href=https://metropolismag.com/"https:////www.headhi.net/">Head Hi<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;is taking over the space. The Brooklyn-based architecture and design bookstore is setting up&nbsp;<strong>Head Hi in the City<\/strong>, a month-long pop-up packed with design objects, books, and weekly talks. It\u2019s an unmissable hangout for design lovers \u2014 think book launches, discussions, and gatherings like the New York Architecture &amp; Design Book Club. It\u2019s a smart, community-driven activation that perfectly matches Archtober\u2019s \u201cShared Spaces\u201d spirit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column article-header_content is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\" style=\"object-fit:cover;object-position:50% 50%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=https://metropolismag.com/"https:////metropolismag.com//wp-content//uploads//2025//10//Archtober_Postcard_Print-04-576x1024.jpg/" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-119434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archtober_Postcard_Print-04-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Archtober_Postcard_Print-04-169x300.jpg 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Archtober postcards.

Photo courtesy: NV5<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">On&nbsp;<strong>October 22<\/strong>, the&nbsp;<strong>Female Design Council<\/strong>&nbsp;hosts its annual&nbsp;<em>Archtober Mingler for Women Architects and Designers<\/em>&nbsp;at Ligne Roset \u2014 a free, RSVP-only event to meet, toast, and connect with other creative women in design. Later in the month, on&nbsp;<strong>October 29<\/strong>, get ready for the return of&nbsp;<strong>Pumpkitecture<\/strong>, the most delightfully chaotic architectural competition around. Teams of architects go gourd-to-gourd carving for the legendary&nbsp;<em>Pritzkerpumpkin<\/em>, and the public helps crown the winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">For design adventurers who love to explore at their own pace, the&nbsp;<strong>Archtober Guide on Bloomberg Connects<\/strong>&nbsp;keeps the discovery going year-round. The free app lets you tour architectural icons and hidden gems across the five boroughs (and beyond) with images, interviews, and stories straight from the designers themselves. It\u2019s basically an architecture festival in your pocket \u2014 and proof that Archtober\u2019s mission extends well past October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Behind it all, the&nbsp;<strong>Center for Architecture<\/strong>&nbsp;continues to elevate the conversation around urban life, public space, and design culture. Through exhibitions like&nbsp;<em>Searching for Superpublics<\/em>&nbsp;and public programs like&nbsp;<em>Designing for Public Life<\/em>, the AIA New York team is turning architecture from a discipline into a shared civic experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">So grab your tote, your curiosity, and maybe your pumpkin tools \u2014 because Archtober\u2019s best days are still ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" style=\"object-fit:cover;object-position:50% 50%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1643\" src=https://metropolismag.com/"https:////metropolismag.com//wp-content//uploads//2025//10//The-Green-Wood-Cemetery_Credit-Synoesis-courtesy-Architecture-Research-Office-scaled.jpg/" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-119438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/The-Green-Wood-Cemetery_Credit-Synoesis-courtesy-Architecture-Research-Office-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/The-Green-Wood-Cemetery_Credit-Synoesis-courtesy-Architecture-Research-Office-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/The-Green-Wood-Cemetery_Credit-Synoesis-courtesy-Architecture-Research-Office-1024x657.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/The-Green-Wood-Cemetery_Credit-Synoesis-courtesy-Architecture-Research-Office-768x493.jpg 768w, https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/The-Green-Wood-Cemetery_Credit-Synoesis-courtesy-Architecture-Research-Office-1536x986.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/The-Green-Wood-Cemetery_Credit-Synoesis-courtesy-Architecture-Research-Office-2048x1314.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The new Green-Wood Cemetery expansion designed by Architecture Research Office (ARO), Courtesy of  Synoesis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"comment size-regular\">Would you like to comment on this article?
