Faizal began as a designer in 2015 while living in Jepara, Indonesia, also known to some as the ‘City of Carving’. Naturally, his first foray into the space was as a furniture carver, taking inspiration from baroque, racoco and renaissance era aesthetics. Driven by the goal of cementing Jepara in the international design scene, Faizal began to develop his own unique style: ‘vintage ornamental’, which he continues to apply to more modern design projects today.
