Form arising from function. Subtly contemplative. Harmonious and interactive.
These qualities define the unusual character of Tan Tik Lam Architect (TTLA) creations,
a small boutique practice that specializes in producing intimate, human-scale architecture
in Indonesia as well as regionally.

Headquartered in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia, TTLA’s rigorously functional approach
seeks to design spaces that will interact with and support the needs of its owners,
eschewing non-functional ornamentation. The result is a profoundly simple elegance that
has won numerous awards both domestically and internationally since the studio was
founded in 1999.

All projects are custom-designed according to the needs and specifications of the client,
in a collaborative manner with the TTLA team including Tan Tik Lam, as Principal
Architect; thus no TTLA creations are the same.
