Who we are
Studio Jigen is a multidisciplinary design firm specialising in interior design.
With any projects, clients have their own stories and visions. We approach design as an iterative process, explore with clients and ensure to convey new dimensions to their visions.
We present and provide quality designs locally, from global perspectives. Our design is driven by collaboration with partners in adjacent design fields such as landscape design, architecture, signage and visual identities.
We believe that big plans always start from tiny seeds of thoughts. We help you visualise and realise your grand visions.
