Research & video
This project explores the theme of the passage of time through a black-and-white edition. Illustrating an entire day, from 6:01 a.m. to 5:59 a.m. the following day, it plunges us into the heart of activity on Rue de la Gare. In parallel, a companion edition highlights an old Volkswagen van that has been parked on the street for years, creating a contrast between the constant movement of passers-by and the immobility of the vehicle. This project encourages us to reflect on the notion of time, movement and immutability in our daily urban lives.

Graphic research
When I moved into my neighborhood, I quickly got to know my neighbor: Liaudet Pial. Liaudet Pial SA is a plumbing company, a water purification company, a pipefitting company - in short, a company that does all sorts of things involving big, noisy trucks. After immersing myself in their world, I realized that the company had a soccer team playing in the Ligue Romande de Football. I then tried to imagine what this team's visual identity might look like, should it one day miraculously become excellent.

Research & poster
In this edition, a reinterpretation of a street under construction is presented. By imagining construction tools and an alternative outcome - innovative buildings - a new universe is explored through collages and future projections, offering a new perspective on urban visual identity.

Camo & research
Real District is a visual identity project for the Route des Monts neighborhood in Le Locle.
Because of the layout of the buildings and windows, as well as being one of the only young people in the area, I feel indiscreetly observed. So I developed a range of camouflage materials to blend in with the neighborhood's various settings.

Research & video
A project on the visual identity of a place that brings together different shots of the lakeside. A pleasant place, with a horizon full of subtlety. The landscape is reinterpreted using color palettes and simplified forms to lend a peaceful touch to the environment. At the same time, it adds a poetic touch to the editorial stroll.

Through the lens of visual identity, this project explores issues related to graphic language and art direction. Each stage of the project examines a different aspect of visual identity development: research, concept, visual language, design, and communication.
BA GRAPHIC DESIGN
with Adeline Mollard
During the visual identity course, the 1st year of the Graphic Design bachelor had to carry out a poster project from a random event. They had to define their own visual system and explored a search for hand-made typographic posters. The visual identity of the event was developed through a poster and a flyer, accompanied by a research notebook grouping their entire creative process.

BA PHOTOGRAPHY
with Angelo Benedetto, Vincent Jacquier, Pauline Saglio, Calypso Mahieu
During the Service Design course, the 3rd year of the Graphic Design, Photography and Media & Interaction Design bachelors had to create multi-media projects. A collaboration of the Visual Communication department which had as subject the SDGs (*Sustainable Development Goals). The theme was called "For a good cause, make the SDGs a reality" and its objective was to allow students to develop a cause that is close to their hearts. Each project consists of at least two different media, one primary and one secondary. These projects could take any form that the students deemed relevant, be it a website, editions, posters, a video sequence or virtual reality.
