Studio
(Est. 2020 — Semarang)
Small studio,senior hands.
Gandaria Studio is a small team of strategists, designers and developers in Semarang who care more about what we make than how big we look. The people in your kickoff are the people who make it.
Our story
A few friends with one stubborn idea: a business in Semarang should get Jakarta-level design without going to Jakarta.
Gandaria Studio began in 2020 around a shared desk in Semarang. We had worked for agencies and clients in Jakarta and abroad, and kept seeing the same thing — great local businesses with brands that undersold them, and good ideas lost between the pitch and the launch.
So we kept the studio small on purpose. The same senior people run every project from the first workshop to launch day, and we take on only a handful of clients at a time.
Today we partner with founders, family businesses and growing brands across Indonesia, from Central Java to Bali and beyond. The desk is bigger; the idea hasn’t changed.
What we believe
Four rules we don’t break.
They shape how we plan and price a project, and they’re a big part of why clients come back.
01
Seniority, always
The people who pitch are the people who do the work.
02
Progress every week
You see the messy middle, so decisions stay cheap.
03
Clarity over noise
If it doesn’t help someone choose you, it goes.
04
Built to last
Systems your team can run long after we leave.
