"Laurent is one of the hardest working, creative, aspirational and inspiring designers I have worked with. He has multiple talents and perspectives which means that what he makes and how he makes it are shaped in special and extraordinary ways.

"I have been working with Laurent for more than 10 years on many different projects (events, websites, posters, advertisements, art). He is the easiest person I have ever worked with, the consummate professional who is always listening, calm, solution oriented, creative, diplomatic, sensible to the context and to the other persons he is involved with. I have seen work Laurent successfully with bankers, designers, musicians, managers, CEOs, entrepreneurs, consistently delivering the highest possible quality of service, and a unique twist of creativity that makes a difference"

"I've worked with Laurent Bolli continuously for the last ten years, first as part of a close collaboration between the company I run and his own company, and then, since 2012, as part of my research at the Digital Humanities Laboratory at EPFL. Laurent is the most brilliant interface designer I know. He designed for me both the interfaces for the QB1, the first robotic computer marketed in Switzerland, and those for the Venice Time Machine, a major research project between EPFL and Ca'Foscari University in Venice. Laurent Bolli is first and foremost a researcher of user interfaces in this sense, notwithstanding his intuition and undeniable artistic talent for inventing them."
