Design Anthology, Issue 41

Design Anthology was founded in 2014 as a print magazine dedicated to Asia’s burgeoning design sector. 

Produced by an international team based in key cities throughout the region, Design Anthology is dedicated to documenting thoughtful and considered spaces, products and ideas that contribute to the wellbeing of the people who use them and the world around them. Our global roster of contributors brings the best writing and photography to Design Anthology readers, often delivering exclusive access to the most interesting and innovative openings, from homes to hotels, restaurants to retail spaces.

Design Anthology, Issue 41

This issue is rooted in the idea of permanence. Edited across multiple cities by editors-in-chief Simone Schultz and Jeremy Smart, it explores design for an uncertain world, with homes, spaces and objects built from concrete, steel and stone, yet shaped with care and a sense of softness. We explore what it means to build with both weight and warmth, from Tadao Ando’s new Naoshima museum to grounded residences in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore and Perth, and a special section on Indonesia’s creative spirit.
