6 Rooms × 6 Positions

What do the design choices made by Jörg Boner, Connie Hüsser, and Kueng Caputo reveal about their personal predilections? What drives Sebastian Marbacher, Panter&Tourron, and Adrien Rovero?

The museum has invited contemporary Swiss designers to each decorate a room using objects from the museum’s collection. In a varied tour, 6 Rooms × 6 Positions provides a glimpse of the themes currently preoccupying a new generation of designers.
