    BANGKOK

    At Habits BKK, we believe design can be a bridge between Thailand’s manufacturing know-how and its emerging technology scene; shifting Thai brands from manufacturers of products to ‘product innovators’. In our 15+ years’ experience with European and Asian clients, we have often worked to implement design as a new value and accelerate this shift.

    In our new studio situated in the buzzing Bangkok, we bring this expertise, our entrepreneurial attitude and our design culture together to help our clients create innovative human/space-centered products delighting users with wonders of technology.
