Splinter Society是一家位于澳大利亚墨尔本的建筑和设计工作室，由创始人Chris Stanley和Asha Nicholas创立于2006年。工作室致力于打造个性化的人类环境，以不同的体验为特色。他们强调设计过程，利用分层的影响，创造独特的触觉项目。每个项目都建立在功能和环境可持续性的坚实原则基础上。
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.
创始人Chris Stanley和Asha Nicholas是一对夫妇设计师，他们毕业于同一所大学墨尔本大学。“我们喜欢一个社会或一群人一起做事情的想法，但有点摸索，”Chris Stanley说。“我们也喜欢这样的想法，即我们所做的项目会让人们产生分歧。他们要么是真的喜欢它们，要么是真的讨厌它们。”
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."
Splinter Society早期的工作是由形式决定的，目前他们更注重材料和质地。他们经常喜欢使用木材、钢铁和石头，并试图在他们项目中融入各种质地和纹理、温暖和粗糙、复古和年代感的内饰。它赋予空间一种丰富，并允许光线做不同的事情。让人可以在不同的时间以不同的方式坐下来享受一个空间，因为它不仅仅是空白的、平坦的饰面。”
While the early work of Splinter Society was defined by form, the current focus is on texture and material. They often like to use wood, steel and stone, and try to incorporate a variety of textures and textures, warmth and roughness, retro and periodised interiors into their projects. It gives the space a richness and allows the light to do different things. Allows one to sit down and enjoy a space in different ways at different times, because it's not just blank, flat finishes."
“Splinter Society”的实践是将看似矛盾的元素并置，在不完美和手工中发现珍贵，这让人想起了日本的Wabi-Sabi概念，它是工匠和群众共同创造的公民行为。设计团队喜欢与客户、顾问和手工艺人一起探索新的想法。他们与客户紧密合作，为每个人的项目和基本的品牌理念提取关键元素，为商业空间增加价值。
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.
