"...When it comes to the world of global furniture design, one name that stands out and is truly worthy of recognition is Tom Dixon. The renowned British designer, celebrated for his distinctive and internationally acclaimed creations, has once again made an appearance in Bangkok. This time, he brings with him a wave of creativity to commemorate the 13th anniversary of the partnership between his brand and MOTIF GROUP. The milestone was marked by an exclusive event, Tom Dixon’s 48 Hours in Bangkok, hosted at MOTIF on the 4th floor of Central Embassy—a space curated under the concept of contemporary thought and unique design sensibilities..."

Thailand is now home to the second Tom Dixon Experience destination in Asia, a dedicated space showcasing the full spectrum of his design works. This venue offers clients and design enthusiasts an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in his visionary creations, from the iconic MELT Lights to an array of unforgettable designs such as the PLUMP Sofa, UNBEATEN Lights, SLAB Lounge Chair, and GROOVE Outdoor Furniture.

“The launch of this new space at MOTIF marks a pivotal moment in our expansion strategy across Asia. It is a bold step into the future, where our customers can engage with our designs in an entirely new way. The Tom Dixon Experience is transforming how we inspire and interact with consumers and the wider design community. We also have ambitious plans to roll out this project across key cities in the Asia-Pacific region within the next 12 months”

Christian Seiffert, Managing Director of Tom Dixon Asia

Beyond the exclusive unveiling of the Tom Dixon Experience, the brand has chosen Asia as the stage for its Tom Dixon’s 48 Hours event series in 2025, with Thailand as the first destination on this journey. This initiative offers Thai designers and design enthusiasts an extraordinary chance to engage in an exclusive moment with Tom Dixon himself. The event features a Design Talk session, where ideas and inspirations are exchanged in an intimate setting, followed by a Cocktail Reception serving exquisite drinks personally curated by Tom Dixon.

As he continues his decades-long design journey, Tom Dixon remains committed to pushing boundaries in 2025. His focus this year will be on upholstered furniture, encompassing sofas, cushioned chairs, and armchairs crafted from leather and other premium materials—an evolution of what was seen in the PLUMP collection. Additionally, his latest outdoor furniture collection, GROOVE, which debuted in late 2024, further exemplifies his dedication to innovative and functional design.
