ATELIER PENDHAPA for BOON_EDITIONS N°3

Pendhapa seeks to preserve the art form of conversations, collaborations and intentionality while exploring new territories creating forms that challenge conventions, all while capturing a sense of timelessness, regardless of scale.

The studio was founded in 2019 by architects Antonin Hautefort and Ignatio Tenggara. With their french and Indonesian heritage, Pendhapa is the product of a cross-cultural exchange between the two visionary minds. At the core of everything they do is a steadfast commitment to contextual understanding, a willingness to consider multiple perspectives, and a dedication to engaging their innate human qualities.

The name Pendhapa is derived f rom the iconic vernacular structure found throughout Indonesia that embodies the essence of their practice. This traditional construct is designed for communal gatherings and is adaptable to different contexts, evolving in form and materials in different environments while remaining true to its original essence.
