Cosmas D. Gozali designed the entrance to Jakarta’s Casa Indonesia, an annual interior design fair organized by Miranti M. Lemy, director of Casa Indonesia Magazine. Visitors are welcomed by a bamboo installation resembling a seabed. Cosmas, who graduated from Vienna’s Academy of Fine Arts, is an engineer, architect, designer and eclectic artist, and is also the Artistic Director of Casa Indonesia. The multi-coloured, underwater landscape not only exhibits Gozali’s creative inspiration, but the material’s ductility and the Indonesian talent of working with it. The bamboo appears in various forms, from “threads” that can be dyed various colours, shaped into fine, arabesque patterns, to the canes, made into panels for furniture, flooring, and walls.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
