About Us
"An object carries a soul only when the hands that made it are honoured, and the materials are chosen for their story — not their price. This is not decorative luxury, but a functional soulfulness.
Luxury has long been sold as an escape. We believe it is a return — a return to knowing where thing comes from, who made them and why they matter. It is the simple, profound comfort of an object that needs no explanation."
FOUNDER of FOREST
WHERE OBJECTS HOLD MEANING
FOREST is a design atelier dedicated to thoughtful gifting. Founded in Singapore in 2018, we believe beauty should be sincere, and luxury felt — not displayed. It lives quietly in the silence between stitches — in the space where intention becomes tangible.
We began with scarves — not as accessories, but as wearable sanctuaries. Crafted in fine silk, cashmere, and rare vicuña, each piece was made to hold emotion: a quiet reminder of strength, grace, and stillness.
As our community grew, so did our purpose. The same clients who found meaning in our scarves began seeking gifts that carried the same depth — gestures of sincerity that spoke from one heart to another. That is how FOREST evolved into a gifting atelier in 2022, bringing our philosophy of thoughtful creation to multinational corporations, financial institutions, and diplomatic organizations across Singapore, Indonesia, and beyond.
We are not a mass-market provider. Each project begins with understanding — the story, the sentiment, the people behind it. We translate these insights into bespoke gifting solutions: objects and experiences that reflect identity and appreciation with artistry and precision.
Our retail collections remain inspired by nature’s quiet elegance — its textures, stillness, and poetry — while our corporate work transforms appreciation into something tangible and timeless. Every detail, from concept to finishing, is guided by integrity and intention.
Sustainability and respect form the foundation of all we do. We work with ethical partners, use traceable materials, and minimise waste in both production and packaging. A portion of our proceeds supports education and welfare initiatives across Asia — because beauty, when true, must also be kind.
Whether a scarf for one or a bespoke collection for a thousand, every FOREST creation is made not just to be owned, but to be cherished.
Because true luxury is not what you have — it is what you choose to honours.
OUR PURPOSE
To restore meaning to modern gifting. We create objects that hold emotion, designed not for display, but for connection.
Every FOREST piece is an invitation to slow down, to give with sincerity, and to live with awareness.
Luxury, to us, is not what you own — it’s what you choose to honour.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Sincerity is our only language; integrity is our signature.
True beauty speaks softly, born of intention, guided by respect. It begins with care: for craft, for people, for the earth.
We design with purpose, choosing materials that matter and partners who share our commitment to ethics and mindfulness. Every detail is considered, every gesture sincere — because excellence is measured not by excess, but by depth of care.
OUR RESPONSIBILITY
We believe beauty must be kind.
It is a commitment that moves from principle to practice — reflected in our choice of traceable materials, in ethical partnerships that honour dignity and skill, and in mindful systems that minimise waste.
This belief extends beyond our craft, as we dedicate a portion of our proceeds to education and welfare initiatives across Asia — ensuring that the beauty we create contributes to a world with more grace.
