Focusing on the unpredictable dimension of the design practice in Asia, AIDA aims to create professional opportunities, and cultural exchanges between the Italian design legacy and the ever evolving Asian methods.

Deliberately positioned amid different disciplines in a generative exchange with graphics, product design and architecture, AIDA would like to start from Singapore a new platform with chapters in every design oriented Asian cities.

Join in on an open dialogue, aperitif and networking night between Italian and Singaporean architects and designers, who will shed light on both past and future dimensions of our current practices and how different design cultures can learn from each other.

During the event, hosted by the founding members of AIDA , we will present to you the stories behind AIDA and we will invite you to tell us your experience of the presence of ”made in Italy” in Singapore.
