Eko Priharseno, Vitra, and MOIE Talks About the Future of Interior Design in Summer Homes

In a recent talk show, Design Focus: Summer Home, at The Colours of Indonesia 2024, Eko Priharseno of AEDI Design Bureau, alongside Michael Kruckenberg of Vitra and Nick and Michelle Shang of MOIE, explored the future of interior design in summer homes. Central to the conversation was the creation of fluid, multifunctional spaces that blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living.

Eko emphasized adaptability, explaining how modern spaces should evolve to accommodate shifting needs. “The versatility of choosing furniture that can transition between indoor and outdoor use is key,” he noted, highlighting how even sofas now serve dual purposes thanks to advanced materials.

The group delved into design aesthetics, favoring clean lines, natural textures, and minimalism that allow nature to become a central part of the home. By harmonizing eco-conscious design with thoughtful spatial planning, they envision summer homes that act as sanctuaries promoting relaxation and a genuine connection with the natural world.

Their collective vision for interior design urges homeowners to embrace multifunctional, adaptable spaces that not only meet practical needs but also foster a sense of tranquility. This approach transforms traditional interiors into forward-thinking environments, perfectly aligned with modern lifestyles.
