Since 2003, Hobo Studio has been shaped by a simple conviction: design begins and ends with people. Every project, every proportion, every material decision is guided by how a space is lived in — how it feels, how it functions, how it quietly supports everyday rituals.
After decades of working closely within Indonesia — in partnership with skilled local enterprises — we have come to understand the importance of cultural nuance, material honesty, and thoughtful collaboration. Our perspective is international, but our grounding is deeply rooted. Experience has taught us that lasting design is never loud. It is measured. Intentional. Human.
We develop commercially considered collections shaped by current market insight and real client needs. Our in-house design team works with a disciplined eye — refining proportion, ensuring balance, and creating pieces that are reliable, versatile, and adaptable across a range of interiors. Every design is intended not just to look right, but to function, scale, and endure.
Solid timber sits at the heart of our work — Mahogany, Teak, Mindi and Mango — joined by rattan, hand-forged iron accents and brass hardware. Natural wood hues and refined silhouettes create pieces that feel calm, grounded and timeless. Designed not to dominate a room, but to elevate it.
Our furniture is created to satisfy real needs, to adapt to evolving habits, and to shape environments that feel both ergonomic and inviting. The common axis across all we do is people. Living rooms become quieter. Dining spaces become more generous. Everyday gestures — placing a bowl, gathering around a table, opening a drawer — become subtle rituals of style.
