2024—
Studio Banda is a Bali-based industrial design studio founded by Cokorda Suryanata and Frans Sihombing. Their work explores the space between the reserved and the unexpected. Guided by curiosity, material sensitivity, and a hands-on, exploratory attitude.
With close observation of the locale and a deep respect for process, the studio continually questions and refines its approach, recontextualizing craft and fabrication to uncover new possibilities in contemporary material culture.
Each project begins with a clear intent, allowing objects to speak for themselves and invite meaningful interaction through solutions that feel both familiar and subtly surprising.
Their practice spans furniture, lighting, audio products, and electronics, ranging from one-off explorations to scalable, production-ready designs
