Monaco captured attention at the International Wood Construction Forum in Paris by unveiling ‘A Fighera,’ a groundbreaking residential project redefining sustainable architecture on the Riviera.

For the first time, the Principality participated in this prestigious global event, showcasing a scale model of Villa Carmelha—now rebranded as ‘A Fighera.’ This pioneering project, a first of its kind in Europe, sets new standards in eco-conscious construction while promoting Monaco’s BD2M sustainability label.

Held under the iconic dome of the Grand Palais from 26th to 28th February, the forum provided the perfect stage for Monaco to display its expertise in cutting-edge wooden construction techniques and environmentally responsible urban development.
