Gwenaëlle Auvry – T-Lom

Nowadays, we produce more and more waste. In an ecological and civic approach, composting areas have been developed in gardens and in composting centres. However, only 10% of this waste is truly recycled and composters do not offer solutions for apartments. T-Lom is a terracotta vermicomposter, designed for one to three people, to hang on your balcony. It takes up very little space and makes it easy to recover its precious juice, a powerful fertiliser for your plants.

Ambre Tuttle – A(r)table

MAS DESIGN FOR LUXURY & CRAFTSMANSHIP

Ambre Tuttle – A(r)table

by Ambre Tuttle

Eating used to be a basic need, but today aesthetics have never been so important at the table. As cooking evolves into art, let us turn our food into unique creations, ephemeral experiences and vectors of identity. A(r)table is a collection of objects that result from a search focused on visual impact and how we present our dishes. This project assumes that pleasure resides as much in the tasting as in the confection. The plate becomes an empty canvas for drawing, tracing and composing, calling for creativity. Paying attention to the appearance of our dishes may seem pointless, but it is the very origin of our desire to eat. The pleasure of tasting starts with our imagination, and sublimating our plates is also sublimating a moment.

ECAL LOCAL

with Christophe Guberan

In collaboration with a local craftsman, the students designed a reusable packaging solution suitable for production in a little series. The project aimed to enhance the value of an everyday food product while addressing current challenges related to transport, sustainability, and the second life of packaging. The intervention had to be simple, functional, and eco-friendly, offering a purpose beyond its original packaging function.

Minyeol Cho – A Piece of Nature

by Minyeol Cho

I was captivated by the Swiss lifestyle of embracing nature and enjoying outdoor experiences. Inspired by the beauty of people conversing and dining outdoors under clear skies, I conceived the idea of an outdoor tableware set to evoke nature and facilitate conversations. My design focused on maintaining a natural aesthetic, using materials that foster a connection with nature. I aimed for a simple design that preserves the integrity of the wood while highlighting its inherent beauty. The tableware set’s interior is coated with a natural dye from lacquer trees, offering waterproofing and eco-friendly production. This design allows users to appreciate the characteristics, aesthetics and practicality of the material.

The Silverground modules are designed to provide an opportunity for senior citizens to exercise their agility and balance in public spaces. These innovative modules are designed to be built into the ground along a walkway. Available to everyone, they are a great way to practice a fun, intergenerational activity. Balance is an essential skill for seniors. It is exercised through physical activity but is often neglected as we age. Professionally supervised physical activities are often costly for the elderly. These urban modules offer a solution accessible to all and help prevent falls – the main cause of accidents among the elderly. Usually, we find that the room in which we cook is separate from the dining room and therefore, when we prepare a meal, we are away from the rest of the family or from our guests. Beneath its ceramic top, this dining table hides an induction system. This means it can be used to prepare table dishes without additional equipment, or simply as a hob. Indeed, who wouldn’t want to cook while looking after the children, work while preparing tea or coffee, cook a dish surrounded by friends, keep dishes warm or be able to cook raclette directly on the table?

Hyeseung Nam – Clover Series

by Hyeseung Nam

Clover Series is an object that features user-friendly graphic patterns, created by the properties of the materials. Reinterpreting the details of the shaker box, the series creates overlapping graphics based on the number of patterns that are stacked. The objects can be used in various ways in the kitchen or living room, adding a playful vibe to the place. The surfaces of the object are assembled vertically and connected by rivets. The round-cutting detail of the connection covers the parting line of the material while providing an aesthetic finish. Clover Series offers a sensual approach to materials, at the crossroads of design and craftsmanship.
