Illustrator Selina Ursprung spent the beginning of the pandemic observing laundromats around the world via publicly accessible surveillance cameras. In close collaboration with her, 7er Studio developed a layout for the resulting work «Wash and Fold». In the book, published in English and German by edition clandestin, lyrical text and illustration meet in an everyday poetic symbiosis.

The «Forum Raumordnung Schweiz» deals with space and quality of life and is a critical voice in the discourse on spatial planning and architecture in Switzerland. «Orte für Menschen» was created for this purpose. Published in Italian, French and German, the booklet functions on the one hand as an appeal for a reorientation of spatial planning with a focus on people’s needs, and on the other hand shows how such a reorientation could be implemented, using the example of Glarus Nord.

For the ADHD organisation elpos, which is active throughout Switzerland, 7er Studio established a new corporate design, launched a redesign of the logo in 2023 and regularly produces print products.

The corporate design was developed in cooperation with Velvet, followed by a redesign of the periodicals and print products by 7er Studio in 2023.

As it does every year during the festive season, the «Berner Kulturagenda» launched a Christmas special in 2022. For this purpose, the BKA editorial team wrote entertaining horoscopes in the form of event tips, which 7er Studio placed on a double page. The central element is the specially designed «Liftschrift», which is used in two versions. The page-filling illustration is also unmistakably penned by 7er Studio and shows a fictitious 13th zodiac sign on its way to the zodiac entrance exam.

For Ruven Stettler, 7er Studio has brought the artist’s extensive body of work into a manageable order online. The result is a website that makes it possible to browse through an archive of drawings, paintings, installations and video works, either chronologically or filtered by groups of work. The focus on the image and a sparse use of text make the extent of the work tangible on a visual level.
