Notes from the Studio

Journal.

Short notes on how we think and work, on design without boundaries, on building by your side, and on the spaces we shape across Jakarta.

Design without boundaries

We believe the world deserves design without boundaries, welcoming everyone, but dictating to no one. It is the line we founded the studio on in 2015, and it still decides how we draw a wall, place a window, and listen before we propose.

By your side, and on your side

A good project begins with a generous brief. We start with a complimentary consultation: your needs, aspirations, budget and timescale, then move through concept, approval and supervision together. The hand that draws the space stays with it until handover.

A house filmed across a single day

For the PIK residence we followed the light from morning to dusk, bright daylit courts giving way to a quiet, lantern-lit evening. Deep eaves and layered glass do the quiet work of tempering a tropical climate while holding the calm inside.

Made to measure

For peace of mind during construction, we make our own built-in furniture, joinery that reflects the exact 3D perspective our designers prepare. At HHS Sunter, pale stone, oak and brass were resolved in the drawing and then built in-house, room by room.

A deli, then a pizzeria

Margaux began as a deli in SCBD and returned as a pizzeria in ASG Tower, PIK, commercial work that has to perform every service and still feel like a room you want to linger in. The same care we bring to a residence, on a faster clock.
