Soft Room

Flavia Renaud – Soft Room

Soft Room is a hybrid object that connects sofa and rug to create a space for sharing moments with friends, family or flatmates. It almost creates a small room outlined by the rug, where people gather to do everything or nothing together. The low sofa and rug extend the resting surface so that everyone, seated or lying down, stays on the same level. The wooden structure, fully covered with foam, offers several angles to feel comfortable and cocooned, and to find one's favourite spot. The loosely draped Kvadrat fabric forms folds that replace cushions and add comfort. A heavy fringe controls the way the fabric falls and keeps it in place, while reinforcing the character of the piece.

Newspaper 2025-26

with Elric Petit

Newspaper is an industrial design project whose objective is to enable a personal stance on a topic of one’s choice. The project is based on an article taken from a newspaper or a specialized magazine, used as a conceptual and critical starting point. Through the analysis, interpretation, and translation of this written content, the project invites the development of a design reflection, questioning the issues, forms, and uses related to the chosen theme.

Museum Trail

with Adrien Rovero

Museum Trail is a project that explores Swiss museums in all their diversity.

Abla Bolassi Owoussi – Mira

by Abla Bolassi Owoussi

Mira is an interior lamp that explores modularity through a pulley system that allows for adjusting light intensity. The lampshade, made of veneer, subtly transforms depending on the position of the mechanism, playing on both light and shape. This project reflects a need for flexibility in the domestic space and reflects a personal research on the evolving object, halfway between discreet technicality and poetic expression of the material.

Alexandre Li – Diego

by Alexandre Li

Sport has become a key social driver in today’s society, with more and more city dwellers gathering downtown to practice together. Diego is an urban furniture concept designed to tap into this dynamic by bringing football back into the heart of the city. Designed for underused public squares and parks, this project invites people to come together and share public space through sport. With a simple tilt, Diego transforms from a bench into a football goal. Thanks to integrated wheels, it can be easily moved and rearranged to suit the users’ needs. A single module invites spontaneous play, while several combined form a real pitch with goals at each end and seatings for spectators on the side.

Alice Graff – Tijolo

by Alice Graff

In many parts of the Global South, especially in Brazil, building a home sometimes means building it yourself with few tools, limited means, and whatever is at hand. Tijolo was born from this reality. A kit of raw earth bricks, air-dried and made from soil, water, and recycled paper. They interlock in a staggered pattern, without mortar or heavy tools. On their surface, two volumes: designed to clip in cables or pipes no drilling, no breaking. You can change your mind. You can also seal them up, leaving a mark, a rhythm.
