Research notes, material studies and project write-ups from the Unit workshop in Basel. What we are testing, what held, and what we threw out.
Exploring how systematic thinking transforms furniture into spatial intelligence, where each component becomes a building block for infinite configurations.
A deep exploration of materiality in systematic design - how aluminum, steel, and composites create a vocabulary of precision, durability, and aesthetic restraint.
Examining the intersection of environmental design and cognitive performance - how adaptable spaces influence collaboration, focus, and innovation.
How the principles of Swiss graphic design - grid systems, typographic hierarchy, and restraint - translate into three-dimensional modular design.
How Unit's modular display systems enabled a cultural institution to create flexible, curatorially-driven exhibitions that evolve with rotating collections.
