Swiss systems translated for product teams
Modulor Studio became a living lab where Swiss grid theory met modern workflows. Teams prototyped design systems in under 48 hours, guided by mentors from Ratio Studio and Atelier D.

Highlights from the week
Night salons on typography and motion
Helvetica Hall transformed after dark with salons led by Emil Steiner and Sofia Hagblom. Attendees dissected kinetic type, responsive grids, and the role of restraint in digital storytelling.
Residency teams shipped real features
Residency cohorts paired with nonprofit partners to ship accessibility upgrades, new UI modules, and editorial tooling. Each team left Montreal with deploy-ready work and a critique deck.
Voices from attendees
“The week condensed a year of design culture into six days. Every talk was a masterclass in precision and intent.”
Martina Rossi
Design Director, Forma Studio
“Swiss discipline met product velocity. We brought the rituals home and our roadmap already feels calmer, clearer.”
Leo Park
Head of Product Design, Northbound
