ECAL MILANO 2024: Access over Ownership
15–21.04.2024
House of Switzerland, Milano


ECAL & FREITAG present Access over Ownership at the House of Swizerland during Milano Design Week 2024.


In collaboration with FREITAG, Industrial Design students explored various, value-based loan offers that embrace one of the brand’s guiding manifesto principles of sharing and access to products. 

Under the guidance of designer Christophe Guberan , young designers have designed loan options, whichare particularly relevant for temporary-use wearables, accessories andfurnitures.

By embracing values of sharing, Access over Ownership is notonly in line with the Zurich-based brand’s philosophy, but also contributes to a morecommunity-based and social approach to consumption.

This exhibition is presented at Milano Design Week 2024 as part of the House of Switzerland - a joint initiative of Pro Helvetia, SwissArts Council, and Presence Switzerland. In parallel with this main exhibition, the AIRTUBE project, an inflatable sofa made from discarded tractor inner tubes and seat belts, is being presented at the FREITAG Store in Milan.
