LL Rack

Timothée Lehmann – LL Rack

The objects are made of recycled tires, a material that is usually burned and not reused as no one knows how to reuse it. It helps protect the bike and the existing furniture.

In the summer, many people use bicycles, and the space to park them quickly becomes saturated. LL Rack is an alternative system that helps create parking spots for bikes on urban furniture, such as poles or lampposts. This series of three objects can be used on larger or smaller diameters.

The tires slip like a sock into a stainless-steel piece to make it difficult to steal the bike.

Teo Grajqevci – reform

by Teo Grajqevci

reform responds to a context in which designers are gradually losing control over their tools: creative software is becoming more automated, closed and dependent on cloud-based services. Today, generative AI can produce 3D models with ease, but often at the cost of control, understanding and ownership of the creative process. reform offers another approach: making 3D modelling easier to access, in a field that is usually complex and difficult to learn. The project takes the form of free and open-source software, built around a simplified interface, intuitive interactions and guides that support the learning of these tools. Through demonstrations and didactic exercises, reform restores the designers' motivation and means to model 3D shapes themselves.

BA MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN

Beyond the screen – 2024

with Angelo Benedetto

Beyond the screen - is a series of interactive machines developed by students in their first year of Bachelor Media & Interaction Design. These systems are inspired by the relationship between instructions and execution within a computer system. These machines create text through a modular typographic system.

BA GRAPHIC DESIGN

Simon Cossy – Openground

by Simon Cossy

The Openground visual identity project is born out of two observations made by the graphic designer in his practice of basketball coaching for 14 year olds. Firstly, organized sports require resources, organisation and a framework that many kids don't have access to. A lot of them thus quit their club, and some will continue playing the sport they love outside, on public playgrounds. Secondly, an impactful visual language can be a powerful tool to create enthusiasm, motivation and a sense of belonging for these youths. How, then, can one use of this tool in the context of exterior amateur basketball, so that kids who are not able to join a club still feel concerned by the game and legitimate to play it?

Arboricrop — Next generation agriculture using real-time information from tree crops

with Stéphane Halmaï-Voisard, Younès Klouche, Frederik Mahler-Andersen , Pietro Alberti, Maxwell Ashford, Alain Bellet, Laurent Soldini

Arboricrop is a research project conducted by a multidisciplinary consortium bringing together Vivent Biosignals, Changins – University of Viticulture and Oenology, and ECAL/Ecole cantonale d’art de Lausanne (HES-SO), with the support of Innosuisse. Its objective is to develop a miniaturized plant electrophysiology sensor designed for use in real agricultural conditions: the VITA Mini Sensor.
