Design Anthology (Asia Edition), Issue 41

Design Anthology is Asia’s new quarterly magazine for interior design and more.

As an independent publisher, we have created the type of design magazine we want to read — cleaner looking than other design magazines, more focussed in its editorial, and much more sophisticated in its tone. We want to provide a reading experience that will transport you and inspire you.

Each issue features quality writing by an international team on art, interiors, design, architecture and travel, and you’ll quickly see we place great importance on the quality and size of the photographs we publish.

Our team brings you into the homes of aesthetes worldwide, behind the scenes at the best industry events, and up to date with the latest products and projects around the world.

We see Design Anthology as a celebration of the burgeoning creative and cultural scene in Asia. Making up more than half of the world’s population, this is an important place.

Printed in Hong Kong on FSC-certified paper, and available on newsstands internationally, Design Anthology is a magazine for design connoisseurs, sybarites and bon vivants.

In this issue: 

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.
