The Acoustiquerie project is the result of a personal and immersive approach to my musical universe. Exploring instruments, styles and eras through an interactive website allows users to discover a side of myself. This work earned me a diploma from the School of Applied Arts in La Chaux-de-Fonds.
project name
“Acoustiquerie” is a name that combines the word “acoustique” (referring to sound) with the suffix “-erie”, which is generally linked to a place or space where something is practised — such as bijouterie (jewellery) or boulangerie (bakery). It evokes a place where music is made. The sounds of the word also refer to something older and more rustic, linked to the idea of memory and intimacy.
Typography
The serifs of Optimo’s Stanley font give the project a classic feel, while the geometry of this font emphasises a contemporary aesthetic. This font reflects the balance of the project, between freshness and tradition.
The main illustration for the home page is based on a layout composed of cut-out and pasted photographs. The addition of isometric perspective makes the website responsive. Each separate element can be moved and resized without altering the perspective.

In addition to the website, two promotional videos are available. The layout of the objects presented on the web interface has been reproduced in a disused building, making the virtual world real and accessible. The videos take viewers on a journey between these two worlds, emphasising the immersive and playful aspect of the website.
