Anata Rupa was a collaborative installation project initiated by Anneke Prasyanti (Bhumi Aras Hospitality+Design), Virobuild and Dani Hermawan (Formologix) for Bintaro Design District 2019 that held a theme “Inclusivity”.  Regarding to BDD’s theme, we were interpreting that the inclusivity should be addressed for public realm especially targeted for the young citizen: children. Departing from that interpretation, our vision is to create design feature that intensify young citizen activities to experience shared public space through kid-friendly public installation: Anata Rupa.

Named in Sankrit language, Anata (meaning: respectfully saluted, colourful, variation) and Rupa (meaning: shape, form), Anata Rupa tried to re-introduce the local wisdom to crafted object -the woven surface- and colour which applied into a non-Euclidean geometry that expected to be very attractive, dynamic and playful for kid.
