Digital studio in Montreux, Switzerland: custom websites, mobile apps and business tools

Designed. Coded. Delivered.

More than twenty years of knowing where to place the gesture, in a space that keeps growing. One person to talk to.

The principle

Every project starts with a question: what makes you distinct? Everything else follows.

You talk to one person: the one who thinks, codes and delivers. One thing, said once, said well.

The work

From the stage to the florist, from a foundation to a mobile app: six chosen adventures, all custom-built.

Also: Nestlé · Gaznat · BG Ingénieurs Conseils · Centre technique horloger · ASPCo · Ligue Pulmonaire VD/VS

  1. 01 · Rieder Fleurs · Retail & craft

    Online shop

    A branch of red gypsophila laid in the dark against an iPhone showing the Rieder Fleurs online shop, bouquets on the home page

    “The store that extends the shop.”

    Launched during the pandemic, when shops had to close: an online store was needed, fast. PrestaShop as a proven foundation, shaped around the florist’s craft rather than the reverse.
  2. 02 · GottaFriend · Safety & mobile

    Personal safety application

    GottaFriend personal-safety mobile app: a red whistle on a lanyard in the dark next to two phones, the live tracking map and the “Your guardian angels” screen

    “Protect without collecting.”

    A virtual bodyguard. Up to three people close to you become your guardian angels and follow your route live; the alert reaches them in a single gesture. Emergency services stay one tap away, and your angels are notified at once.
  3. 03 · Massimo Furlan · Theatre & performance

    Company website, shows & tours

    Company website for Massimo Furlan, theatre and performance: the massimofurlan.com home page on a MacBook in the half-light, a silhouette in a red jersey, arms raised, shows and tours as banners

    “The work first, the interface in retreat.”

    Treat the site like a stage: the work first, the interface stepping back. A structure that lets the pieces breathe and keeps the memory of the work (tours, press) within reach.
  4. 04 · FOCAL · Training · Film & audiovisual

    Drupal site & custom tools

    FOCAL’s printed activity report, an iPhone resting on it showing one of the site’s training pages, in the half-light

    “A site that works, not a showcase that sleeps.”

    A single Drupal foundation to carry the public site and connect it to the foundation’s in-house tools, instead of stacking disconnected solutions.
  5. 05 · UnitedHeroes · Sport & charity

    Charity auction platform

    UnitedHeroes charity auction platform, sport and charity: hockey gloves lit by a single touch of red, an iPhone showing the platform and its motto “Together, nothing is impossible”

    “Legendary objects, causes that matter.”

    A bespoke auction engine: accounts, bids, payments. In service of the causes, not the other way round.
  6. 06 · Diabète Vaud, Promotion Santé VD & Ligue Pulmonaire · Public health

    Moving for your health: site & registrations

    The campaign’s printed guidelines (palette and Futura alphabet) under an iPhone showing the Se bouger pour sa santé site, a red pencil beside them

    “Three institutions, one voice.”

    Three health institutions, one tool. An events site where anyone finds their activity on a map and signs up in a few clicks, for the length of a canton-wide drive.

The crafts

  • Websites & tools from the editorial site to the business tool.
  • Mobile apps from concept to store.
  • Web design art direction and interface designed as one.

Who

A studio. A lab. One person to talk to.

First lines of code in 1996, in the early days of the web. More than twenty years in the craft, independent since 2014. Custom-built, because it is the only way to truly answer a need. I show the work, I explain the choices, I credit the people who work with me.
