Working collaboratively with architects, interior designers or project owners, Ango customizes designs for specific spaces and works for special requests — creating the design, making lighting pieces and exporting the finished products directly to customers.

Ango creates sustainable products using low energy and focusing on handmade techniques. Handcrafted lighting is their specialty. The studio brings local techniques from artisans across Thailand, mainly from the Isan (north-eastern) region, blending such skills with their unique design.

Using the technique of hand weaving and hand welding to connect points of the structure, Ango’s designers choose different natural materials found in Thailand such as silk cocoon, rattan and mulberry tree bark to create products. Ango always admires and respects the local wisdom of craftsmanship.

For example, the Halo Table Light marks one of the jewelry table lights created by Ango. With double layers of hand soldered wire matrix technique, the brass plated light is a spectacular handcrafted item that makes any living space unique and sophisticated.
