Bienvenue Studio is an intercultural Graphic Design Duo: Xiaoqun Wu and Oliver Hischier. Their Zurich-based studio creates print and limited edition products and series.
Bienvenue Studios turns nature into visual culture. They translate natural structures into handmade, graphical editions. As graphic designers, they tackle the visual appearance of nature that has not gotten much attention thus far. First, they look at how it came about and what it means culturally. In a second step, they turn the results of our research into a narrative visual form.
Even though they handle various topics and apply different methods, the results always make the same impression: it can be described as calm, poetic and lightly surreal. Bienvenue Studio is interested in what surprises us and they investigate those phenomena as designers. Nature is full of surprising phenomena. They seek to bring more visibility to what surprises us using graphic methods. Their work is available in art books, notebooks, cards and as prints in limited edition.
