Practice

CO AIKA is a design collective founded on the belief of shared time: how design shapes the way people give, share and spend their common time. The studio approaches design as an act of discovery, driven by curiosity, instinct and a willingness to challenge convention.

Founded by Soph Harris & Rach Wan, CO AIKA is a Sydney based studio with projects spanning the east coast of Australia and beyond. The practice is a bespoke and agile team of specialised creatives with a shared instinct for considered design.

Through an open and collaborative process, CO AIKA explores ideas beyond the expected, finding new possibilities in material, form and experience. Working across distinctive residential, retail and hospitality spaces, the studio draws influence from art, travel, culture and the nuances of everyday life. Each project is an opportunity to create something with its own character, balancing beauty with a sense of the unexpected.
