Our Story

At Aness Design Works, we believe design should solve real challenges and bring people together. Our curiosity drives us to ask deeper questions, creating spaces—workplaces, community hubs—that enrich lives and strengthen connections.

We start with listening and exploring, blending creative vision with practical solutions. Based in Jakarta, Bandung, and Surabaya, our small, collaborative team crafts designs that are meaningful, functional, and true to our clients’ needs.

Aness Design Works is an independent design firm focused on architecture and interior design. We deliver purposeful spaces for clients who value impact and integrity. Founded in 2021 by Nabil Sabirin, who began sketching ideas alone, we’re now a team shaping design that matters across Indonesia.

Our Philosophy

We believe in design that’s thoughtful, contextual, and quietly bold. Every space should be intuitive to use, honest in material, and rooted in its surroundings. We start with curiosity—but finish with clarity, empathy, and execution.
