The volume underscores the ingenuity of Indonesian designers who collaborate with master weavers to integrate traditional textiles into contemporary interior design. It presents exemplary case studies drawn from The Dharmawangsa Hotel in Jakarta, the Como Shambala Estate in Bali, and select private residences. The overarching objective is to demonstrate the adaptability of woven textiles within modern spatial contexts, thereby fostering appreciation for artisanal craftsmanship. In doing so, the work advocates for sustained support of the cottage industry as a means to enhance the livelihoods of local weavers while safeguarding Indonesia’s cultural heritage.
