Their project, an immersive installation, reimagines waste as a catalyst for design innovation, transforming discarded materials into an entirely new kind of spatial experience. By turning what is traditionally seen as useless into something creative and interactive, Studio NiCHE. is flipping the script on how we understand materiality in architecture and design.

Drawing inspiration from Verner Panton’s modular, playful approach to space, the installation merges this dialogue with today’s most pressing design concerns — sustainability, sensory engagement, and communal interaction.

Rather than viewing furniture as static objects, Studio NiCHE. encourages a more dynamic relationship between people and the spaces they inhabit. The result is an environment that invites tactile, intuitive interaction, urging visitors to question how everyday items like chairs and tables both shape — and are shaped by — the rooms we live in.

At its core, the installation critiques the modern disconnection brought about by technology, offering a powerful reminder that design is not just about aesthetics — it’s about how we engage with the world around us.

The TIME SPACE EXISTENCE exhibition is known for showcasing boundary-pushing architecture and design from around the world, positioning Studio NiCHE.’s work alongside some of the most forward-thinking ideas in contemporary practice.

With a focus on how built environments reflect and influence our daily lives, the 2025 edition promises to explore future scenarios for architecture, sustainability, and human experience.

Well done to all involved! Will you be heading to the Venice Architecture Biennale this year?
