Inter-Face

Following a one week collaborative workshop between ECAL’s 2ndyear Industrial Design students and Hongik University’s Product and Space Design students, where in mixed teams, they worked on a range of MASKS to cover, disguise, embellish, cloak, protect, decorate or enhance people. Through this project, they shared and discovered their mutual cultures and habits. The outcome is a series of colourful and surprising masks reinterpreting this ancestral object, materialised with textiles and know-how harvested in the maze of Seoul’s enormous Dongdaemun market. Workshop realized as part of the Summer University '15 program of the Canton de Vaud, led by Stéphane Halmaï-Voisard, assisted by Giulia Amelie Chehab and Marceau Avogadro.

Damien Barman – Terrasse en place

by Damien Barman

Modular Parking Terrace Designed for restaurants that temporarily occupy parking spaces during the summer, this modular terrace offers a standardized alternative to custom-built installations. It is a reusable solution that can be adapted to different locations and expanded when needed. The terrace is composed of half-parking-space modules that connect together to fit a variable number of parking spaces. It features a fabric roof that unfolds accordion-style along rails using a rope system, allowing it to be opened or closed from the end of the terrace without disturbing users. Fully demountable for easy winter storage, the structure is made of galvanized steel, while the flooring is constructed from maritime pine panels.

Laura Cipriano – Roll3

by Laura Cipriano

Roll3 is a universally adjustable pair of 3D glasses that explores a new way of inhabiting vision. Flexible, rollable, and made from a single material, it adapts to different face shapes as well as to the wearing of prescription glasses. It replaces traditional temples with a support system based on gentle pressure at the temples, allowing for quick and intuitive placement, either directly on the face or over other glasses. Made from PET, it simplifies manufacturing and facilitates recycling at the end of its life cycle. In a context where around 640,000 pairs of 3D glasses were used in Switzerland in 2025 and 81% of the population wears some form of visual aid, Roll3 questions the sustainability of these ephemeral objects and their potential for transformation.

Benjamin Claus – UKS

by Benjamin Claus

UKS (Urban Keep Safe) is an urban storage system designed for municipalities and event organisers. Conceived for temporary deployments, festivals, marathons or seasonal installations, it offers a simple infrastructure for users to secure their personal belongings. The flexible bags rely on a stainless steel mesh combined with water-resistant fabric to offer a lighter and more compact solution to traditional lockers, while remaining weather-resistant and theft-deterrent. UKS fits on a standard pallet when disassembled, ready to be stored away and redeployed the following next big event.

Mélissa Da Silva Nicolet – No Wings

by Mélissa Da Silva Nicolet

There is someone who lives alone and wants to be a bird. We don't know why they stopped going out. We don't know why they decided to become a bird. It happened gradually. The apartment transforms in silence, in a quiet and luminous strangeness. From this script, three objects were designed, each tied to a scene from this character's daily life: a perch, a bathing object, and a sleep wrap. Each one answers a human need, translated through the logic of a bird's life. The project takes the form of a set built around these objects, an atmosphere, a fragment of the life of someone who chose, in their own way, to live differently.

Matheo Dusong – NEX-1

by Matheo Dusong

What happens to a desktop computer when not in use? In the era of remote work, this question hits close to home. Designed for those working from home, the computer often remains as an intrusive black rectangle in our living space once the workday is over. NEX-1 offers an alternative: a computer with a flexible screen that rolls into its base. Moving from a work tool to a discreet piece of furniture, it clears the visual space and helps separate personal and professional life. By redefining this typology, and while AI infiltrates every smart home device, NEX-1 chooses the opposite approach: an advanced technology capable of disappearing from our daily lives.
