Mono Earth will be participating in the archiDAY event taking place in Poland on May 13, 2026. archiDAY is an international architecture platform based in Europe that brings together architecture, interior architecture, material research, and contemporary design practices. The event gathers designers, producers, and creative teams from different disciplines, focusing on current architectural approaches, innovative materials, and experimental production methods. As part of the

Yapı Tech Garage & Product Experience Zone has been reimagined this year as a curatorial experience that moves beyond presenting materials as products, and instead positions them as tools for decision-making, connection, and impact. In this approach, material is not merely a visible surface; it becomes something to touch, to feel, and to think with. The visitor is no longer a passive observer, but an active participant in the experience. Over the course of three days, five ex

Mono Earth co-founder Çağlar İşbilir was invited to speak at Bir Tasarım Problemi , sharing the story behind the “İn” installation presented at the Venice Architecture Biennale . The talk began with a simple yet powerful idea: to understand earth not just as a surface we step on, but as a layered material shaped over millions of years. Drawing from the sedimentary landscapes of Cappadocia , the presentation unfolded as a journey—from the ground we inhabit, to the spaces we

As Mono Earth , a collective working with earth, material-based practices, and nature-sensitive production approaches, we were delighted to host Factory of Us in Cappadocia —sharing similar concerns and modes of making. Held at Yunak Evleri as part of Factory of Us ’s second-year launch, this gathering was more than a product introduction; it created a platform for exchanging alternative perspectives on production, material, and sustainability. Moderated by Mono Earth co-f

We were invited by Vitra to join Sustaindex Talks , a YouTube series that brings together different perspectives on sustainability. In this conversation, we spoke about our relationship with earth—not only as a material, but as a way of thinking, making, and relating. For us, sustainability cannot be reduced to a single definition. It is closely tied to how we live, how we produce, and how we engage with material, time, and energy. Working with earth introduces its own rhyth

Mercado Design Days brought together different practices, disciplines, and ways of thinking under one roof. Throughout the days, the space shifted between being a display, a meeting point, and a conversation ground—where objects, people, and ideas moved in and out of each other. For the exhibition, we presented a modular version of Monolith. Instead of a fixed composition, it existed as a system—open to reconfiguration, responding to the space and the moment. As we installed

Creative Collaborations is a podcast series that brings together people and collectives working across different creative fields. But what makes this conversation meaningful for us was not the projects themselves—it was everything happening around them. In this episode, we talked about what it means to produce together. About how collaborations begin, how they evolve, and sometimes how they struggle. About communication, shared intuition, and the invisible dynamics that shape

Mercado Podcast is a platform that brings together creative practitioners to reflect on their processes and the ideas behind their work. Hosted by Yağız Genç, each episode unfolds through carefully crafted questions that open space for deeper, more thoughtful conversations. In this episode, we were invited to share the story of Mono Earth—how our journey with earth began, how it evolved, and how it continues to shape the way we think, design, and produce. The conversation mov
