ma-ru is a firm that develops architectural projects that engage issues of culture and consciousness, nature and artifice, surrealism and pragmatism. We are a young thriving architecture design office based Jakarta, Indonesia founded by Zenin Adrian and Leila Veruschka Makarim. 

Our approach is that we see architecture design as a convergent, interdisciplinary venture. Minimum form takes maximum effect with the goal to bridge the utopian and the pragmatic. Instead of separating aspects of architecture, landscape, history, social systems, and codes into their constituent disciplines, these agendas are simultaneously explored so that each discipline symbiotically gains from the other. In this way sustainability emerges as an integrated rather than additive result.

We also provide unified design services which allows client to have full access in all parts and scales of the design services. This is reflected by our wide experience in other design disciplines, i.e.: urban design, interior architecture and furniture design.

Our works has been published in various local and international publications. For example, we were featured in Young Asian Architects (German), A+U (Japan), iSH (Singapore), Indonesian Architecture Now, Elle Décor Indonesia, Laras, Majalah Renovasi, etc.
