Generated memories

During the Image Creation course with Guy Meldem, students explored the benefits of AI. Feeding the machine with their own illustrative style, they were able to generate a certain quantity of images, enabling them to produce a graphic novel, a collection of images or other types of illustrated editorial work.

Bruno Jolliet – New York Urban Atlas – 2020 #2

with Gilles Gavillet, Nicole Udry

“New York Urban Atlas” is a project on the different ways in which urban density is physically transcribed in New York City. The book follows the principle of administrative residential areas by exploring the various neighbourhoods in the form of illustrations. Throughout the chapters the reader is led to explore urban materiality from an analytical angle with environmental factors relating to the illustrations. Map information provides insight into the various neighbourhoods explored in the book.

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.

Visual Identity - “?” - BA1 S2 2025-2026

with Adeline Mollard

Last year, the Marché du Temple, an iconic grocery store located in front of ECAL, closed its doors, leaving behind precious memories and a warm atmosphere that had enlivened the neighborhood for decades. This semester, students had the opportunity to reinvent this space by designing a complete visual identity for a new fictional business. Their work resulted in a poster and its animated version, a booklet, and a proposal for a new storefront. To celebrate the end of the semester, an exhibition was organized in the former premises of the Marché du Temple.

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.
