Benoît Rochat – Harmonic Structures

GRAPHIC DESIGN

Benoît Rochat – Harmonic Structures

with Nicole Udry, Jonathan Hares

Harmonic Structures is an attempt to develop a modular and musical graphic language that could form the basis of a sound architecture. The first issue reviews information specific to the building and the population of Le Lignon in Geneva, in order to apply it in a two-dimensional musical notation system. Finally, these data are interpreted by a musician using an MPC 1000 to communicate in acoustic terms what precisely constitutes the building.

Service Design - 2023

with Angelo Benedetto, Vincent Jacquier, Pauline Saglio

During the service design course, the 3rd year of the Graphic Design, Photography and Media & Interaction Design bachelor's degree programs realized multi-media projects. A collaboration of the Visual Communication department with the theme of SDGs (*Sustainable Development Goals). The theme named "For a good cause, make the SDGS a reality" aims to develop a cause close to the heart of the different student groups. Each project is composed of at least two different supports, one primary and one secondary. The projects could therefore take any form the students deemed relevant, be it a website, editions and posters, a video sequence, or even virtual reality.
