Mono 4T Exhibition

Johannes Seibel – Mono 4T Exhibition

The spatial design Mono 4T Exhibition was developed for an event of the German design manufactory Mono in collaboration with the German Design Graduates for the 40th anniversary of the Mono teapot.

The core elements of the modular system are reused tea glass shipping boxes, which are stabilised by four stainless steel L-profiles fixed together with a packaging strap.

A stainless-steel sheet is placed on the support structure providing a high-quality stage for the ten sculptural objects designed by the selected graduates.

Text on the sheet’s bent front sides informs about the designer’s name and object title. After the exhibition, the sheets will be recycled into production.

Large-format detail photos of the objects, printed on fabric banners, enhance the exhibition’s visual experience.

Souvenir items for The Olympic Museum

with Hector Serrano

To mark the reopening of The Olympic Museum, the ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne has been working on designing souvenir items for the Museum shop, created by Bachelor of Industrial Design students after a workshop with Hector Serrano, a Spanish designer based in Valencia. Two of these projects are set to go on sale in the Museum shop shortly.  The aim was to create a collection of souvenirs which reflect the spirit of Olympism and The Museum in a contemporary, fun way. Using his experience in this area, Spanish designer Hector Serrano gave the students some tips on what makes a successful souvenir item. The students came up with around 30 proposals, which were submitted to a jury composed of Olympic Museum and IOC employees.

with Tamara Janes

The students task is to create their own story, storyline, narrative or sequences based on the existing given images. Using their personal interests, imagination and ideas they link the images together. They can continue the plot of the images, do in-depth research, write fictional stories or tell stories based on personal experiences. The students had the freedom to photograph, generate or film.

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.
