Sunny with scattered afternoon thunderstorms
The first weather forecast in "The Times" in 1861 was only one word long: "Rain". Today, Swiss Meteo's forecasts are much more detailed. We collaborated with the product design team of Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen SRF and led the UX and UI design process along with user testing and implementation with their internal development team.

Layer by layer into the future
We designed the flagship industrial 3D printing platform, the NEX-01, for Swiss start-up NematX with precision and quality in mind. The formal vocabulary combines a detached, minimalist futurism that brings the values of "Swiss Style" - conceptual strength, formal conciseness and technical precision - into the 21st century.
Design is a process to develop potential futures. To make these concepts negotiable, we tell stories. Read about how we do, what we do.

From highly functional to expressive, its development is closely linked to Switzerland's economic and societal changes. To understand the success of Swiss design, it is worth both looking back at industrialisation and considering the significance of sustainability in modern design practice.
