On the occasion of the Milan Design, ECAL presents three exhibitions.
The ECAL Manual of Style
Over the past 20 years, ECAL has developed a hugely effective, highly engaging teaching method, which drives its students to develop their creativity in a professional way. To celebrate this, an exhibition and a book present the story of one of the world’s most innovative schools, as told by its teachers, students and alumni, in response to the question, ‘How should design be taught today?’. The book is published by Phaidon and edited by acclaimed designer Jonathan Olivares and ECAL Director Alexis Georgacopoulos.

ECAL × BMC: Daily Mobility
In the House of Switzerland, ECAL and Swiss bicycle company BMC Switzerland present the results of their exciting collaboration. During a workshop with designer Christian Spiess, Bachelor Industrial Design students were tasked to work on an urban mobility model created by BMC. Featuring either add-on equipment or completely reimagined bikes, the students’ projects offer a glimpse into the future of mobility on two wheels and highlight the potential on how to enhance the rider experience.
