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.
