Where Design Meets Industry
The Design Innovation Programme (DIP) is SFIC’s flagship platform for bringing together furniture brands, manufacturers, and designers to create innovative solutions for modern urban living.
Through cross-disciplinary collaboration and product development, DIP empowers companies to strengthen design capabilities, build distinctive brand identities, and bring commercially viable collections to global markets.
Design as a catalyst for industry transformation
Design capability
Global relevance
Commercial impact
The Design Innovation Programme was created to strengthen the design capabilities of Singapore-based furniture and furnishings companies through collaboration with designers and industry partners.
Through these partnerships, companies are able to design, produce, and launch commercially viable products and solutions for urban living, using design as a key differentiator in a competitive global market.
As part of commercialised efforts, Urban Living Showcase displays curated collections at FIND – Design Fair Asia, presenting outcomes from DIP collaborations on an international platform. This helps participating brands and designers translate ideas into market-ready offerings while raising visibility for Singapore design in the region and beyond.
