The three founders of Atelier Oï represent a transdisciplinary approach to design. They design architecture, scenography, furniture and products. Their special interest in materials and their high-quality processing leads to cooperation with luxury segment brands such as Louis Vuitton and Bulgari. At the same time, Atelier Oï carries out research of its own in this  area and maintains an archive of materials. 

In their Moïtel in La Neuveville, the trio of Aebi, Louis and Raymond talk about designing luxury goods and of the problems involved in transposing an idea when working with a company. 

A contribution from the exhibition "100 Years of Swiss Design".
