Edizioni Arche

Edizioni Arche

Edizioni Arche unites the idea of inclusion under the umbrella of a publishing house that has as its founding pillars ‘always act in such a way as to maximise the number of possibilities’, a quote from the philosopher Von Foester, which we try to apply in our diploma. The importance of enabling fluent reading and understanding is a primordial concept: everyone should have the right to read and understand. Graphic design conveys this possibility. Arche researches and explores accessible editorial responses to all cases, from comprehension difficulties, motor problems, visual impairments or the simple desire to empathise with others. No less important, books aimed at a wider audience are not excluded: they raise the necessary awareness of sometimes underestimated problems.

Video Clips – 2025

with Sami Benhadj

Music video projects created within the framework of the Sequence course supervised by Sami Benhadj. Each 2nd-year student in the Graphic Design, Media & Interaction Design & Photography Bachelor programs produced an individual music video. Taking an existing track as a starting point, every project sought to translate the music into images, exploring visual storytelling, rhythm, and staging. Students were encouraged to experiment and develop a creative and personal approach, resulting in original graphic worlds where sound and image resonate with one another.

Type Design BA1 S1 2024/2025

with Robert Huber

  Designing a logotype means defining a strong visual identity anchored in a specific context. First-year Graphic Design students developed a hand-drawn logotype based on a subject, theme, or environment of their own choosing. This creation was informed by prior research in typographic archives. Each student produced a reference booklet and a specimen system based on six or more typefaces, to ground their visual and conceptual exploration. Balancing typographic culture and contemporary expression, each project investigates what makes a visual identity truly distinctive.  

Genius Loci - Spirit of the place

Genius Loci - Spirit of the place

with Nicole Udry

Genius Loci, or the spirit of the place, refers to the unique identity or essence of a location. In architecture, this principle suggests that the specific characteristics of a place should be reflected and extended in a design. In the case of the second-year graphic design students, they have applied this principle to communication projects focused on promoting or extending the identity of a particular place through design. Their work likely explores how to visually capture and communicate the essence of a space, using graphic design elements that resonate with the architectural features or history of the place.

ALICE FRANCHETTI WORKSHOP – RICHARD NEUTRA

ALICE FRANCHETTI WORKSHOP – RICHARD NEUTRA

with Alice Franchetti

During this workshop, each student was tasked with designing a poster inspired by the architectural legacy of Richard Neutra. Drawing from his modernist philosophy and formal principles — clean lines, transparency, strict geometry, and integration with the landscape — each student visually reinterpreted Neutra’s ideas within a 2D graphic format.
