designed by FL@33 for Alsop Architects (Bienal de Valencia 2003)

FL@33 was commissioned by Alsop Architects, London to design an exhibit for the A&M Reading Department organised by Will Alsop and Bruce McLean. The FL@33 installation presenting the Ascii Eye Animation was built into a confessional within the 'Reading Department'.

FL@33 is a multi-disciplinary design studio for visual communication based in London. Its founders, Agathe Jacquillat (French from Paris; ESAG Penninghen) and Tomi Vollauschek (Austrian, but from Frankfurt; FH Darmstadt) met on the Royal College of Art's (RCA) postgraduate Communication Art and Design course in 1999 and set up their studio after graduating in July 2001.

The studio’s clients include MTV Networks, BBC, Royal Festival Hall, Laurence King Publishing, Creative Review, Computer Arts, Groupe Galeries Lafayette, Matelsom, Arts Affaires and Friends of the Earth.

The two launched Stereohype.com – Graphic Art & Fashion Boutique – in 2004: an international platform for both emerging and established talents. The duo have also released self-initiated projects such as the award-winning Trans-form magazine and online sound collection project bzzzpeek.com.

FL@33 interviews, features and company profiles have been published online, in numerous magazines, newspapers and books around the world. Interviews featured on BBC Radio and NPR, America’s National Public Radio.

A FL@33 monograph was published in 2005 as part of the bi-lingual (English and French) and highly collectable 'design & designer' book series by French Pyramyd Editions.

The duo released two books so far that were conceived, written, edited and designed by FL@33 and both books were published worldwide by Laurence King, London. The first book is Postcard from 2008 and was translated into French, German and Spanish. Their latest book is Made & Sold: Toys, T-Shirts, Prints, Zines and Other Stuff, released in October 2009.
