The work centres on a confused and curious queer character: a digital reincarnation of the 1892 duck-rabbit optical illusion, popularized by philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein to illustrate the ambiguity of perception. Now revived in the age of synthetic vision, this character becomes a vessel through which the project navigates the trials and tribulations of self-discovery and CGI production.

Simone C Niquille receives the Swiss Grand Award for Design 2026 for her transdisciplinary practice at the intersection of design, research, and education. Her work examines how digital image systems shape bodies, spaces, and perception. Through films, installations, and research-based projects, she reveals how standards and classifications embedded in technology influence the way we see and understand the world.ย As the first recipient of the award in the field of Media & Interaction Design, her practice represents a new generation of designers who redefine design as a critical and investigative discipline. ย  1: Elephant Juice (2020) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio 2: Portrait Simone C Niquille (2026) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio 3: Beauty & The Beep (2024) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio 4: Sorting Song (2021) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio 5: Safety Measures (2018) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio 6: Homeschool (2019) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio 7: The Fragility of Life (2017) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio 8:ย duckrabbit.tvย (2023) - ยฉ technoflesh Studio ย  @technoflesh #SimoneCNiquille #SwissGrandAwardForDesign #MediaAndInteractionDesign #SwissDesign

The Swiss Grand Award for Design 2026 is awarded to three outstanding positions that have shaped Swiss design and continue to expand its horizons: atelier oรฏ, Ursula Hiestand and Simone C Niquille. On the recommendation of the Federal Design Commission, the Federal Office of Culture (BAK) honors three positions whose work has had a lasting impact on Swiss design culture at both national and international levels. Their practices span architecture, product design, graphic design, research, and media-based work, reflecting the diversity of contemporary design in Switzerland. @atelier_o รฏ is recognized for its interdisciplinary practice that combines product design, architecture, scenography, and material research into a poetic and internationally influential body of work. Ursula Hiestand is honored for shaping Swiss graphic design and the visual culture of everyday life through clarity, precision, and social responsibility. Together with her husband Ernst Hiestand, she led the Zurich-based studio E + U Hiestand from 1960 to 1980, and subsequently pursued an independent career with a strong focus on socially responsible design projects. Simone C Niquille (@technoflesh ) is awarded for her transdisciplinary practice in Media & Interaction Design, critically examining how digital technologies shape bodies, spaces, and systems of power. Since 2007, the Swiss Grand Award for Design has recognized designers of major cultural significance; each award is endowed with CHF 40,000. The award ceremony will take place on 15 June 2026 in Basel as part of the Swiss Design Awards exhibition. On the occasion of the Swiss Grand Award for Design 2026 award ceremony, video portraits in the Swiss Design Awards exhibition and a publication will be released featuring brief portraits by @susanna_koeberle , interviews with the award winners by @keijiashizawa , Isabel Koellreuter & Franziska Schรผrch @schuerchundkoellreuter as well as @noraomurchu , and visual material on the award recipients.
