In 2026, Adrien joined LUCA School of Arts as a design researcher, building on his bachelor's project "Spppreken Mag., an interactive audiovisual installation that explores the lived experience of stuttering. Drawing from his personal experience as a person who stutters, his practice-based research investigates how design can translate the cognitive, emotional and physical dimensions of stuttering into tangible experiences for people who do not stutter. Through participatory design and co-creation with people who stutter, he aims to expand the installation into new forms of interaction and expression, fostering empathy, awareness and a deeper understanding of the often invisible challenges of stuttering.
