The S AM Cup, a soccer cup organised by S AM Swiss Architecture Museum in Basel, has been held since 1992. In 2024, 24 teams played against each other at the Landhof stadium, the former soccer stadium of FC Basel.
Among the participants was ARGE FC, a team of smaller offices (Diwersy Weimar, Studio Hammer, Guerra Clauss Architects, Atelier Neume, and others) that united “to beat the big ones”. While for years the S AM Cup was dominated by teams from bigger architecture firms in Basel, such as Herzog & de Meuron or Christ & Gantenbein, in 2024 the cup was won by “the small offices” of ARGE FC.
The soccer jerseys of ARGE FC were designed by their right forward, Studio Bosco Ferreira, using an unreleased rounded version of Farmacia by Nguyen Gobber.
