Staying small, thinking big


We are a research-based architecture and urban design practice.  Our focus is spatial transform through designurban advocacy and technology exploration. Open and collaborative, Blink!LAB is a small multi-disciplinary practice bridging between economics, architectural form, urban design, industrial design, furniture and fabrication.  Because we are designers committed to new forms of knowledge through making, we prefer to situate ourself in the middle of catalytic design- where new challenges and emerging opportunities are addressed through integrated-thinking and design.
