The ephemeral space created by the students of the HES-SO is an invitation to the public to enter a playful underground universe where the various projects imagined by the different schools will be on show. Almost 300 students, teachers and assistants have taken part in this adventure over a six-month period. In all, 16 original projects involving fifteen departments and a huge amount of technical know-how and interpersonal skills.
