Marco Zelli is an architect and designer based in Zurich, Switzerland. His work explores the dialectic between the permanent and the transitory, using different registers, from the ironic to the operational, and approaching different scales of the project, from architecture to design. He has worked in some of the most prestigious offices in Portugal, Japan and Switzerland, and founded his own practice in 2020. His work has been exhibited at major international fairs such as ALCOVA Miami (2024), EDIT Naples (2024) and Fuorisalone (Assabone, 2022) and is currently represented by Oxilia Gallery (Milan) and Spazio Giallo (Rome). In addition to his practice, he currently teaches architecture design and construction at the ETH.

The exhibition will feature a series of modular pieces that engage with users and their ability to compose a given form into new and unexpected dispositions, changing over time according to their needs and mode. The systems on display go beyond the traditional approach to modularity, where the joint becomes the core of the design, to emphasise sculptural and aesthetic values over technological expression, generosity over determinacy, ambiguity over banality.

Edin and Lina Kjellvertz launched Dusty Deco as a platform for curating vintage furniture, interior accessories and art. After having traveled the world and browsing flea markets for the most unique pieces, their home and storages quickly filled up to the brim with rare designs. Ten years later, Edin and Lina began drafting a new chapter in the brand’s history when closing the doors to its vintage business, instead launching their own collection of furniture, rugs and details. Today, Dusty Deco is a contemporary design brand, creating pieces with just as much storytelling, originality and passion for craftsmanship as the vintage finds that originally inspired the couple to start their company.

Where attachment begins. "moifani" is a furniture brand launched in 2021 by SHIKI, an Okawa-based manufacturer in Japan. Design by SATEREO, the Portugal-based studio of Japanese designer Keita Sato.

In moifani’s work, form is never arbitrary; it grows from the quiet dialogue between people, material, and everyday life. The "pombo collection", a series of dining chairs and tables, marks the brand’s latest release.
