The best design disappears into your routine.
​
In a moody, tactile bathroom like this, the last thing you want is a control panel fighting for attention. Quiet geometry, icons you can read without reaching for your glasses. It's built for the five quiet minutes before or after a long day, not for showing off.

Some details turn a bathroom into a retreat.�
​
Warm brass against cool stone. A soft monochrome hush, or a bold cobalt accent for those who want to be noticed. Every finish was chosen the way you'd choose a fixture, not a gadget, so it feels less like technology and more like part of the room you love coming home to.�This is the kind of detail we love sweating over.

Customisation starts with modularity. Choose your configuration, from a lite 5 key layout to a full function panel or an integrated touchscreen. Add modules as your needs grow, from a single unit up to a full multi function array. Even the dock shape flexes, from rounded to rectilinear, to sit naturally within the rest of your interior.�
​
The design language stays consistent throughout, so however you configure it, it never stops feeling like one system.�

What comes to mind when you think of a bathroom remote?�
​
We're proud to have been on the team that supported Kohler in rethinking that experience. This concept study explores modular design for a seamless, intuitive bathroom, recently featured at the Shanghai Kitchen & Bath Show.�
​
Every surface here was considered for how it feels under the hand, not just how it reads on a wall. A soft concave dial for pressure. Flush, quiet buttons for everything else. One consistent design language across every module, so the hand always knows where to go.�

Congrats to the Kohler team. We're proud to have supported Kohler on the concept exploration of this product, the Water Your Way hand shower, winner of an iF Design Award 2025 in Product Design, Bath. The design centers on interchangeable spray heads, including a dedicated Pet Care head, that let one shower adapt to different care needs. Proud to have been part of the early thinking behind it.�

Early sketches, material studies and prototypes trace the journey behind our pet shower concept, from rough form exploration to a refined handheld tool ready for real world testing. This is the work that laid the groundwork for what came next. We love sharing the messy middle as much as the polished result.

What if everyday pet shower can be elevated? We mapped out the full pet care routine, from pre-cleansing to grooming, to understand where the real friction points were. That thinking shaped a concept for a single adaptive showerhead system with interchangeable heads for massage, scrubbing, dental care and coat conditioning, all in one tool. Swipe through to see how the idea came together.

Lively workshop by our team last week, for school leaders from Raffles Institution
​
Rodney Loh kicked things off with a plenary sharing session, giving a brief introduction to NextOfKin Creatives before diving into two case studies. Showing how research and user understanding shape communication and experience design.
​
From there, participants moved into a hands on segment. Each student created a persona board encapsulating audience, identity, tone, and visual cues. The session wrapped up with quick sharing, where participants presented the personas they had built.
​
Great energy in the room and so many good questions raised. Thank you Studio Dojo for organising, and school leaders of Raffles Institution for joining us.

It's a good reminder that a strong community isn't just about proximity. It's shaped by spaces that invite people in and shared experiences that build belonging, like the Silver Pride Lion Troupe, which reimagined lion dance for seniors, including those in wheelchairs, giving them a new way to train, connect, and socialise together.
​
Grateful to be part of work that contributes to a more inclusive and age friendly Singapore.

We're glad to share that Silver Pride Lion Troupe will be exhibiting at "Designing for the Real World: 10th Anniversary of the UN Sustainable Development Goals," opening at Fosun Foundation Art Center in Shanghai from July 5 to August 22.
​
Curated with the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and Research's Centre for Sustainable Development Goals and Leadership Development, and co-sponsored by Red Dot Museum,China, the exhibition brings together 100 sustainable design cases from 17 countries, spanning circular economy, inclusive design, rural revitalization, and cultural heritage.
​
Being part of this global lineup means a lot to us. It's a chance to share how design rooted in community and tradition connects with a much wider conversation.
