Formwork

An ongoing construction site.
Formwork is an independent design studio founded by Barbara Virginia Tedeschi (IT) and César Bourgeois (FR), working across visual communication, art direction, and spatial thinking.

We guide projects through their formation. We are drawn to ideas in the making — unstable, unfinished, and full of potential. We work to develop solid foundations, building structures designed to hold and evolve over time. Alongside client work, Formwork operates as a Lab. A space for independent exploration, where ideas can exist outside of immediate application. These experiments generate friction, producing noise that feeds back into commissioned projects.

Website for Big Table, an artist-run space in Athens that hosts coworking, residencies, events and concerts. The site takes the form of an interactive calendar, gathering the full history of the space's public activities in one navigable timeline. Colour is used as a system, distinguishing each type of event at a glance. The design draws on a 1990s web reference, pared back to its essentials and kept slightly playful, in tune with the informal spirit of the place.

Design & Development: Formwork Studio, in collaboration with Allegra Caricato
