Everything we perceive visually is the result of the interaction between light and material. Our lives are shaped by the rhythms of light. The world that unfolds around us is determined by the way illumination engages with the elements that surround it. “Luce Materia” is a degree project that places material at the centre of… Continue reading Camilla Boggi

We are becoming increasingly more disconnected from our objects. We take for granted how they work, where they are produced and how they are manufactured. The more we lack understanding of our objects, the more we lose our relationship with them. By designing a series of task furniture for the home environment, where the mechanical… Continue reading Axel Åkerblom

In a therapy room, words are expected to carry what is sometimes the most difficult to express. Conversation is psychology’s primary tool, but what happens when words aren’t enough? In a therapy room that is today strongly verbally oriented, there is a need for complementary forms of expression, such as aids that can open up… Continue reading Astrid Gustafsson

Handling baby bottles is a significant part of most parents’ everyday lives. Their lids are unscrewed and screwed back on; they are filled, heated, shaken and held many times over. Yet baby products are rarely designed for hands that hurt, or hands that no longer function as they once did. For parents with joint diseases… Continue reading Ariadne Sandberg Karali

With personal experience of daily medication, I have developed a deep understanding of the challenges involved in both remembering your medicine and always having it accessible. This instinct sparked an interest in medicine storage as a design problem. The project started as a broad investigation of medicine storage in everyday life but evolved to focus… Continue reading Alvin Pontvik

Drawing from a hybrid personal background of Caribbean and Iberian heritage, I examine syncretic traditions, specifically the Venezuelan ‘Culto de María Lionza’ and Portuguese ‘figurado’ ceramics to understand how ritual objects can facilitate a communal healing soundscape. In my degree… Continue reading Ricardo Lima

‘I build a museum for her without walls’. “The Drawn Museum” explores how colonial history and authoritarian power become embodied in everyday objects. I create a collection of objects that carry layered and entangled influences. I refer to these as hybridity objects: “Folded August 15, Momotaro’s Hacienda” and “The National Language Family”. They carry traces… Continue reading Mu-Se Kuo

To breathe is to accept being haunted. Each inhalation carries traces of others: landscapes we have crossed, people we have met. As air fills our lungs, memories, feelings and dreams are imprinted in the porosity of our flesh. Rooted in collected testimonies of everyday olfactory experience, this degree project approaches scent as a medium of… Continue reading Alice Zerini-Le Reste

My work consists of a fountain and a floor. The fountain is surrounded by two green crocodiles, inspired by my favorite card in the tarot deck, The Fool. The Fool is a Dionysian figure, and beside him there is a crocodile symbolizing creative power. Between the crocodiles of the fountain is a starry sky. The… Continue reading Ylva Lindh

The final tear after your last breath held everything that was and everything that never came to be. That is where we remained. I go on living without you, one step further away each day yet memory stands still: your laughter, your voice. You never leave me. In that tear, I rebuild what has been,… Continue reading Stefanie Gripenberg
