Designing the Future
Indonesia Design’s 60th edition was published in January and formally launched during an elegant red carpet cocktail party. Feted at Wilshire Restaurant in The Foundry at SCBD, Jakarta on Friday January 24th, 2014 invited next generation designers, architects and industry leaders commemorated the launch of our ‘Next Generation Designs’ themed edition with creative curiosity.
Upon arrival on the red carpet guests were presented with a palette made from empty egg shells filled with paint – the idea being to ‘hatch’ an innovative image or phrase inspiring the ‘Next Generation of Design’ and then paint this vision onto a canvas - creating a collective artwork of creative ideas. Besides this impromptu activity we also asked our guests to contribute to our Time Capsule in order to stand a chance to be rewarded with a special prize. Our Time Capsule was in the form of a contemporary silver treasure chest from KARE in which we gathered the innovation of this generation to pass onto an indefinite future generation. The winners of the valuable designer prizes from Joshua Simandjuntak was Yulia Maria from Panorama Hospitality Management and Mary Oetomo from Datascrip. Nada Lahlou from Design Desk Studio took home a chair designed by Bayu Edward for her unique and very personal contribution to our Time Capsule. The ceremonial cutting of a chocolate cake decorated with our front cover by our Editor in Chief, Lina Gan, symbolically launched our edition and gave guests a sweet taste of what is inside the edition. As the party livened with inspired cocktails made with Ketel ONE vodka and divine canapés served by the Wilshire kitchen brigade - a sensuous surprise was planned as our grande finale! Kiky Adam (who styled, dressed and did the make-up for our entire editorial team) had one more show stopper on offer: Performing a captivating RUMBA, the dance of love, Kiky and his dance partner from the Philippines, Lyka Reynera Lozada, had the crowds begging for an encore that extended our elegant event with a few more minutes before departing to enjoy the rest of the evening with the new friends and connections made during our Edition Launch.
