INDEX offers a more dimensional view of the design landscape across Asia by introducing design studios and companies that demonstrate clear design philosophies and notable achievements. Spanning graphic design, branding, spatial design, product, digital, and motion, INDEX focuses on emerging practices and looks beyond portfolios to examine how they work, where their ideas come from, and what they stand for. Rather than cataloguing projects, INDEX documents the design language and attitudes shaped by local identity, industry, and cultural environments across Asia.
“Kenyon Yeh, Studio Juju, and Atelier 2+ represent the collaborative spirit of contemporary Asian furniture design, acting as creative catalysts rather than mere manufacturers. In Taiwan, Kenyon Yeh applies a minimalist and geometric approach, creating characterful furniture pieces for renowned international brands. In Singapore, Studio Juju approaches furniture design through a lens of spatial interaction, creating playful and refined forms that encourage human connection. In Thailand, Atelier 2+ merges Scandinavian design principles with Southeast Asian craftsmanship, designing emotionally resonant furniture that blurs the lines between architecture and fine art. Together, these studios demonstrate how independent designers shape the future of living spaces through strategic partnerships and thoughtful form making.”
