About LAB

LAB–abbreviation for Local Architecture Bureau–thrives on diverse projects, embracing Medium to Large Scale designs across Public, Commercial, and Private sectors. Our philosophy is rooted in local perspectives, explored and expressed experimentally as a Laboratory. We create new possibilities and typologies based on the fusion of functions and aesthetics. LAB engages in a comprehensive process, from think-tank sessions and idea development to research-based studies and realisation. Founded and led by Tan Tik Lam and Gemawang Swaribathoro, LAB is the result of their shared vision. Tan Tik Lam, renowned locally and internationally for shaping Indonesian architectural landscape with a tropical and modern touch, collaborates with Gemawang Swaribathoro’s international experience, infusing a fresh spirit into LAB's projects.
