Synopsis

Talking about design, it's more than just the work's aesthetics. There is a sequence of decisions that need to be taken, and everything is based on the experience and understanding of each individual. The summary in the book Terra Incognita contains various interviews regarding the speakers' experiences, especially in the design field. It is hoped that it will be an introduction for those of you who are just entering a new territory - after graduating from the world of design studies or perhaps already standing in this territory.

This time, the contributors from Indonesia, Taiwan, Japan, and Malaysia embody the problems they face every day as design individuals, from responding to today's life through a design lens to surviving and trying to achieve their ideal dreams. 

Amid technological advances, cultural presence has become mixed, and access to information has become increasingly noisy. The question is, can we survive and continue to adhere to the principles in our work? Will our life design" adventure" only end after work hours? Can design individuals be free from the shackles and variables of uncertainty? 

Welcome to Terra Incognita, a place where process is the only currency that can be a catalyst for change. —Aulia Akbar
