This exhibition explores the vital dialogue between craft traditions and contemporary design. Bringing together international and regional voices, Designers & Crafters presents furniture and objects that transform familiar materials and techniques into new expressions of cultural identity and innovation. The showcase highlights a generation of designers who work across borders, bridging the hand-made and the industrial, the local and the global. Their practices reveal how rattan, metal, reclaimed timber, glass, and plastic can be reinterpreted for today’s world — not only as functional pieces, but also as carriers of history, narrative, and experimentation. Works on view invite visitors to consider the enduring role of craftsmanship in shaping contemporary life. Each object reflects a meeting of tradition and imagination, reminding us that design is as much about process and memory as it is about form and function.
