Puros Circuiots by Jimena Acosta, María Fernanda Arellano, Balkis González, Giovanna Vega, Isabella Rincón, Daniela Tinoco, Irlanda Chávez, Fernando Ayala, Jimena Acosta and María Fernanda Arellano

“T-23 is a printed circuit, inspired by tarot and that provides a combination of messages related to fortune or words of wisdom, intending to encourage dynamism within our interactions and entertain; an atypical fusion that seeks to start a dialogue.

“Leaving notes: what gives life to the piece is a microcontroller that works as a voice recorder and a microphone, with a button to record and a speaker to another to play messages.

“Auora: a luminaire composed of two printed circuit boards that are in tune with the golden ratio, representing the passage of time with subtlety, contemplation and poetry.

“Luminary starlight: a visual timer formed by the union of two printed circuit boards, inspired by the stars and constellations of star charts, for their historical use as a reference for maritime navigation.

“0-22: an exploration of the convergence between two opposing forces, representing a meeting point between technology and esotericism.”

Quality Time by Emiliano Sánchez, Lucía Hernández, Hellen Castillo, Astridd Huerta, Stephany Pacheco, Mayalen Ramírez, Ximena Irazaba and Regina Contreras

“This collection comprises five meticulously conceived pieces, each designed to emphasise the time and dedication invested in every stage of their creation.

“Incorporating both traditional and contemporary elements that reflect our history and identity, each piece represents a fusion of Mexican heritage with a contemporary aesthetic language, inspired by Scandinavian and Brazilian design.

“From the selection of wood to the finishing touches, every detail reflects the students’ passion and commitment to creating furniture that transcends mere practical use, evolving into an expression of art and culture.

“By integrating the finest aspects of our national heritage with international design influences, this collection not only appeals to the contemporary luxury market but also celebrates diversity and innovation in design. The collection is integrated by: Ecos de la calle, Xylocopa, Calli and Alabeo.

“Luxury, beyond opulence, should be perceived and celebrated for the time and effort invested in what provides us with wellbeing; the small details matter the most.”

Dreams of Lightness by Ana Llanderal, Dulce González and Melissa Zamudio, Patricio Serrano, Gabriela Sofía Galaviz, Sebastián Ríos, Perla Jaramillo, Juan Diego Lira, Alfredo Carrillo, Alejandra Lamas, Ximena Guzmán, Fernada Sosa, Andrea Romo and Ana Hurtado, José Luis Gómez, Ian Cabrera, Christa Estrada and Itzel Gálvez

“Maintaining coherence with the environment and social context in which students operate, the project seeks to generate proposals that reflect and offer reflections on a theme with which they deeply identify.

“This semester, the focus is on exploring the challenges and difficulties faced by creative individuals in Latin America.

“These challenges arise from limited opportunities for growth and global recognition in geographically distant spaces, times and forums.

“Issues such as high transportation costs, economic disparities with the European context and lack of support from local entities have led designers and creatives to take measures that over-optimise the experience of presenting their work at design events.

“The collection is integrated by: Ausente, Comodín, Diáfano, Fog, Gami, Hidden Talent Tote, Innotrek Essentials, Luce, Milano Rover, The Unit, Wearable Suitcase and New Romantics.”

Students: Ana Llanderal, Dulce González and Melissa Zamudio, Patricio Serrano, Gabriela Sofía Galaviz, Sebastián Ríos, Perla Jaramillo, Juan Diego Lira, Alfredo Carrillo, Alejandra Lamas, Ximena Guzmán, Fernada Sosa, Andrea Romo and Ana Hurtado, José Luis Gómez, Ian Cabrera, Christa Estrada and Itzel Gálvez

“Ignea is a capsule collection of footwear and bags composed of five elements that challenge gender conventions by fusing elements traditionally associated with masculine and feminine into unisex designs.

“This collection does not seek neutrality, but rather to celebrate and highlight the unique nuances of each gender, challenging pre-established perceptions of fashion.

Nexus by Dania Navarro and María José Yañez

“From the Central Western region we seek a focus on social innovation, sustainability and responsible design. Our vision as a design major is to answer the question: how are we educating the designers of the future?

“Nexus is a line of urban furniture with the intention to promote the reactivation of ignored public spaces in the city, in order to reconnect with the sense of belonging and community that has been lost over the years.

“The aim is to increase permanence in these spaces by facilitating such natural actions for citizens as waiting, resting or eating.

“The proposal is made up of a series of versatile and adaptable modules (rest, shelter, eating surface and backrest) that are interconnected through slots and flaps and are configured according to the needs of each space.

“These modules are 100 per cent manufactured in Mexico with laser cutting, bending and welding of carbon steel.”

Campo Lúdico x Ludicalles by Product Family Design students

“Campo Lúdico (Recreational Field) is a set of 13 urban games developed in collaboration with Ludicalles, with urban furniture which aims to integrate into the streets and meet the needs of the children in the town of Iztapalapa, Mexico City.

“The proposals are an invitation to reclaim the streets as safe spaces for play; the students designed furniture with the intention of creating a playful and safe environment that encourages family and community interaction.

“Various meetings and workshops were organised among students, professors, coordinators and children to determine the activities that guided the design of the urban games. Each piece is designed from an action related to play.

“To create ludic spaces within recovered streets repurposed for public use, our students designed a catalogue of ludic elements that were developed based on the desires and needs of children living in Iztapalapa.

“The projects intend to provide elements that promote free play and sense of community, the projects developed were: Entrelazos, Hoja, Nido, Lianas, Sendero, Escalárbol, Líneas, Ola, Constelación, Cima, Oruga, Trompa and Saltamontes.”

Cuenta Cuentos by Jazmín Regalado, Innán Rojas and Jimena Elías

“Over the past four years, faculty and students at the Sonora North Campus School of Design have focused their creative energy on two broad areas of ‘life-centered design’ and ‘design for vulnerable communities’.

“‘Life-centered design encompasses regeneration projects, ecosystem preservation and co-multispecies creation working for and with water, birds, bees and other living beings.

“‘Design for vulnerable communities’ is dedicated to improving the daily lives of vulnerable groups, positioning design not only as a tool, but as a key attitude and antidote to achieving social and environmental harmony.

“Cuenta Cuentos is a board game designed with the purpose of supporting the preservation of Cmiique Iitom, the ancestral language of the Comcáac nation, originally from Sonora.

“Through illustrations inspired by its rich worldview, the game invites players to interpret symbols, create stories and let their imaginations run wild, fostering a deep understanding and appreciation for this unique culture.”
