Astrid Durand – Visite Maciet

The aim of this project is to question our perception of museums and the artefacts within them. The issue here pertains to the museum’s impact on the obsolescence or enhancement of the material exhibited. With the Maciet collection, I sought to create a hybrid, flowing exhibition. The carpet, the main medium of this project, enhances our relationship with handicrafts and artefacts while providing visitors with a new museum experience and overcoming traditional hierarchies.

Louis Roh – Les chemins perdus

BA GRAPHIC DESIGN

Louis Roh – Les chemins perdus

with Guy Meldem, Diego Bontognali

Millennia ago, humankind discovered electricity and never stopped exploiting and reinventing it, unconcerned, considering this resource to be infinite. This book, Les Chemins Perdus, opens up new horizons, between dream and fiction, through realistic and poetic notions. What if all the lights went out? It stimulates the imagination and offers readers light, childlike speculation. Interest in illustration, storytelling and printing techniques brings this graphic tale to life. This journey of colours and images appeals to a multi-generational audience, tapping into the potential of children’s books in these tense and confusing times.

Julie Turin – Star's Bags - The Tree Bag

by Julie Turin

Assembly line work and online orders have become the norm, even in craftsmanship. The Star's Bags app is a seamstress's response to this trend, offering an immersive shopping experience to highlight manual labor before the customer receives their bag. "The Tree Bag" is the first collection from this app, which can expand into other themes. Through this experience, the customer participates in every step of the bag's creation over several days: gathering materials, placing patterns, cutting, sewing, pinning, addressing, and shipping. By following this process, the customer appreciates the effort involved and retains a special memory of their purchase, enhancing the value of the product received.

Carolina Crivelli – Gossip

by Carolina Crivelli

Gossip is a magazine which explores perceptions of femininity through activities that have historically been — and still are today — associated with women, such as knitting, embroidery and cooking. Every aspect of the magazine aims to reclaim the female mode of transmission, which has until now remained on the margins of history, in a political and feminist way: from the hierarchy between text and image, through the horizontal structure of voices, to the printing process, where areas of white, which are normally never highlighted, are printed and brought to the foreground. In an era marked by the resurgence of misogyny, patriarchy and the concept of the "trad wife", Gossip aims to be a space for rediscovering women's history and discussing the role of our activities within society.
Leila Farra – Traces

BA INDUSTRIAL DESIGN

Leila Farra – Traces

with Stéphane Halmaï-Voisard, Christian Spiess, Maddalena Casadei

“Traces” is a collection of paintbrushes made out of rattan and horsehair. The idea behind this research was to experiment with the tools. Movement, the design of the handle and the hair position influenced the result. The first tests on paper led to experiments on fabric, resulting in a series of painted textiles whose patterns stem directly from the brushstrokes. This project enabled me to immerse myself into two ancestral crafts, wickerwork and paintbrush manufacturing, which I was then able to merge to create a collection between art and design.
Clara Besson – L'Or du Transvaal / L'Or des DuBois

BA GRAPHIC DESIGN

Clara Besson – L'Or du Transvaal / L'Or des DuBois

by Clara Besson

L'Or du Transvaal / L'Or des DuBois is the first volume of the Recto / Verso collection, which aims to encourage Swiss people, and especially young people, to question the history of their country. This volume explores how Switzerland has been and remains imperialist, through the story of the DuBois family from Le Locle, who left to exploit gold in Transvaal in the 19th century. Each double page mirrors two simultaneous realities: the imperialist narrative on the left and its multidimensional critique on the right, the same events told from radically different points of view, by entities that coexist without ever directly interacting. In a context of rising far-right politics across the West, L'Or du Transvaal / L'Or des DuBois intends to fight by the transmission of knowledge beyond academic circles.
