Rooted in gotong royong — the Indonesian spirit of collaboration — the exhibition highlights how shared knowledge, artisanal traditions and contemporary design practices intersect within today’s global design landscape. A special edition of 360° Design Dialogues will take place on Saturday, 4 April, featuring Budiman Ong (Indonesia), Shi Kai Tseng (Taiwan), and Jin Kuramoto (Japan). The conversation brings together three distinct Asian design perspectives, fostering dialogue on crafts, materiality and contemporary design culture

CushCush Presentation

For Tokyo Edition, CushCush presents a selection of signature pieces developed in collaboration with both Indonesian and international designers, reflecting the studio’s ongoing explorations on materials, craftsmanship and innovation rooted in its local context and culture.

Among the highlights are the Baby Rambut stools in black and white, a new addition to the Rambut series from Niskala Collection, a fun duo of opposites made of plant fibers, referencing the Balinese philosophy of Rwa Bhineda. Designed by award-winning French designer Pierre Charrié, The Rambut series draw inspiration from poleng, the iconic Balinese checkered textile that symbolizes balance and coexistence.

 

 

Also featured is the Dress Me Up! collection, a playful combination of furniture and textile design celebrating the Balinese way of life and architecture, designed by the French duo Clémence Plumelet and Geoffrey Pascal from Studio Marcel Poulain.

Showcasing hand woven and naturally dyed textile outfits in soft natural tones that complement the lounge chair, the collection celebrates the deep connection between textiles, rituals and identity.

 

Completing the presentation is the Pari faux shagreen tray, a contemporary interpretation of the elegant form and pearled texture of stingray skin. The piece highlights CushCush’s dedication to material experimentation and refined craftsmanship, translating ancient traditional techniques into a modern design object.
