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.

BEFORE VINTAGE FURNITURE creates furniture using wood that holds genuine value but had lost its place in the market for various reasons. Through precise craftsmanship and an architectural approach, the brand gives these materials a new future. Each piece of furniture is individually numbered, reflecting the belief that furniture becomes more meaningful as it ages alongside its owner. By revealing the quiet power of sleeping wood, the brand expresses honesty toward the material and the possibility for each piece to mature into a future vintage.

There is something really nice about getting up close—to the furniture, the makers, the production process. A. Petersen creates furniture with a focus on quality, craftsmanship and respect for professional expertise. Theor products are designed, developed and produced in Denmark. Furniture from A. Petersen is crafted with the intention to renew the Danish design tradition and carry it into the 21st century. Not in a grand or rapid way—for the sake of scale or tempo—but in a measured, serious way, for the sake of current time as well as posterity, because furniture should last a lifetime, and hopefully even longer. A good piece of furniture only becomes more beautiful through time and use, as lived life leaves its mark on the materials.

Each piece is developed with intention, where quality, proportion and materiality are carefully considered. By prioritising longevity over excess, Stylescape creates thoughtfully made objects that age gracefully and support a slower, more mindful way of living—where quiet luxury becomes part of everyday life.

Artisan is internationally recognised for its refined approach to furniture design and exceptional craftsmanship.

Spanning seating, tables, sideboards, beds, and lighting, Artisan’s collections are defined by a deep respect for material, form, and the handmade process. At the core of the brand is a commitment to preserving the natural character of wood, ensuring each piece retains the warmth, authenticity, and integrity of the material from which it originates.
