Splinter Society is an architecture and design studio based in Melbourne, Australia, founded by founders Asha Nicholas and Chris Stanley. The studio is committed to creating personalized human environments that feature different experiences. They emphasize the design process and use layered influences to create unique haptic projects. Each project is based on solid principles of functional and environmental sustainability.

Founders Chris Stanley and Asha Nicholas are a couple of designers who graduated from the same university, the University of Melbourne. "We like the idea of a society or a group of people doing things together, but it's a bit of a fumble," Says Chris Stanley. "We also like the idea that we're doing projects that divide people. They either really like them or they really hate them."

The practice of "Splinter Society", which juxtaposes seemingly contradictory elements and finds preciousness in imperfections and handwork, is reminiscent of the Japanese concept of Wabi-sabi, which is a civic act created jointly by artisans and the masses. The design team enjoys working with clients, consultants and craftsmen to explore new ideas. They work closely with clients to extract key elements for each person's project and the underlying brand concept, adding value to the commercial space.
