Theme
This year, we are thinking about how EVOLVING PERSPECTIVES shapes the ever-changing nature of creativity. As the foundation for our curatorial vision, initiatives, and collaborations, this theme invites open interpretation—exploring curiosity, resilience, and adaptability while foregrounding balanced representation, inclusivity, and diverse voices within the creative community.
Exhibitions
Bringing together 100+ local and global exhibitors and over 200 participating brands, the showcase spans disciplines from product design to architecture, construction, materials, and scent. With contributions from both emerging voices and established names, each presentation offers a unique perspective, inviting visitors to explore how craft, design and cultural narratives intersect across disciplines.
360° Design Dialogues
Curated and moderated by Design Anthology, the 360° Design Dialogues convene a range of perspectives for a series of thought-provoking conversations. This dynamic format invites reflection, exchange, and new insight—emphasising inclusivity, collaboration, and depth. With a focus on underrepresented voices, the dialogues broaden the lens through which design is explored and understood.

Art Trail
Featuring six site-specific installations across the venue, the curated route explores diverse materials and artistic principles—from organic forms to experimental structures.
Architecture in Scale
Centred on the idea of "scale," this exhibition presents maquettes by 24 architects practising across Indonesia. From intimate residences to expansive public spaces, the works reveal a broad spectrum of design approaches. Curated by Suzy Annetta, Founder of Design Anthology, the showcase emphasises the intersection of craft and design in architecture, and how it is quietly informed by diverse cultural contexts.
Waste to Wonder
Waste to Wonder is a new element introduced at Jia CURATED 2025, focusing on using discarded materials and simple, low-tech techniques to create sustainable design solutions. It repositions waste as a tool for craftsmanship, embedded within community-focused functions.
