Founder & CEO
Rengkuh Banyu Mahandaru
Rengkuh Banyu Mahandaru, Trying to address the question, “How design can change people’s life?” by combining my experiences and knowledge as a Product Designer to leverage design on tackling challenges in society and initiate viable solutions. Since 2018, I have worked on various social and community development projects and initiatives which are mainly focused on creative economy, local innovation, and agriculture waste. In my spare time, I would spend my day doodling to channeling my inner artsy side or scrolling through social media to see the latest trends on, basically anything.

Almira Fikrani is passionate about traveling and exploring diverse cultures across Indonesia and abroad to learn more about the inherited local design. This also allows her to synthesize the prevalent trends and apply it to the designed product.
