Sausset Leou is an architecture studio born from the affinity of its founders, grounded in a poetic, vernacular, and radical approach to spatial design. During their architectural studies at ENSA Paris Val de Seine, Kim and Rémy worked together on alternative design projects through shared studio workshops. Sausset Leou asserts a rigorous sensibility and a precise sense of poetry. Their approach combines formal rigour with narrative freedom, rejecting hierarchies between building typologies. Each project is conceived as a sensitive reinterpretation of the history of places and people. The aim is to make beauty accessible to everyone, without distinction.

Design House Stockholm defines itself as a publishing house rather than a conventional producer. Since 1992, it has invited both emerging and established designers, along with skilled manufacturers, to collaborate in shaping innovative Scandinavian design. By fostering curiosity and active listening, it curates and explores designs that blend quality and timelessness with personality and attitude. Each creation is driven by function and detail, often unexpected and thought–provoking, yet always achieving a sense of excellence in everyday life—what can be described as contemporary design poetry.

PANI JUREK is a design studio combined with a ceramics workshop, run by Magda Jurek and Michał Borecki.​ It operates at the intersection of design, craftsmanship, and art. The objects created by Studio Pani Jurek go beyond their stereotypical functions, with interactivity being an inherent feature. Conceived as elements of spatial compositions, they often change depending on their surroundings and users. A distinctive trait of the studio’s projects is colour—a result of Magda Jurek’s background in painting. While functionality is not the starting point in the creation process, it is never neglected. Ergonomics and design discipline help tame imagination and material.
