Virtual Design Festival

Venture by SayDesign for VDF x Ventura Projects

SayDesign spotlights furniture by emerging Sarawakian designers

SayDesign is presenting Venture, an exhibition of furniture by emerging designers from Sarawak, for VDF's collaboration with Ventura Projects.

Exhibitor: SayDesign
Project title: Venture – A Journey Through Culture and Nature

SayDesign is a platform that showcases design by young creatives living in Sarawak, a Malaysian state in Borneo.

It was initiated by the Sarawak Timber Industry Development Corporation and the Institut Teknologi Bandung to support to Sarawakian talent by offering exposure and furniture design education.

SayDesign is exhibiting Venture, a collection of chairs and tables by the state's emerging designers, as part of VDF x Ventura Projects.

Each piece is handcrafted using materials locally sourced in Sarawak, and designed with a "unique character" that can be utilised in any space.

Photography is by Minimal Studio.
