Made in Sàrl, based in Geneva and Zurich, was founded by François Charbonnet and Patrick Heiz in 2003. Made In works as an operative practice, redefining the outline of the architectural project through an extensive range of private commissions and competition entries, challenging the common acceptation of elaborate design. As frequent lecturers in Switzerland and abroad, Made In is a prominent agent of the debate on contemporary architecture and advocates for a critical and transversal insight of present contigencies and demands. François Charbonent graduated from the ETH Zurich and collaborated with Herzog&de Meuron and OMA before setting up Made In. He has been a visiting professor at the EPF Lausanne, the ETH Zurich and at the Accademia di Archittetura, Mendrisio.
