The move marks the acceleration of Asia's leading manufacturer of architectural hardware and intelligent gating systems for more than 25 years, from OEM/ODM suppliers to independent brands and design value-oriented enterprises.

The company has long provided customized door hinges, hidden hinges, automatic door closers and intelligent door system solutions for global first-line construction projects and high-end residences. This joint series focuses on "minimalism × functional aesthetics". Michael Young's overall modeling and human-computer interaction logic design are combined with Bonda's self-developed aerospace grade stainless steel material and mute buffer patented technology to realize 0.1-second non-sense opening and closing and 100000 durability test standards and redefine the process boundary of high-end hardware products.
, the first batch of the joint series launched three core products: 'Aura' invisible hinge system,' Nexus 'intelligent touch ground spring and' Lume' magnetic mute door stop, which were launched globally during Milan Design Week (Salone del Mobile.Milano) in September 2024 and simultaneously landed in Bonda's official website flagship store and Hong Kong's Central flagship store.

'
industry analysis pointed out that Bonda's cross-border highlights its strategic intention to strengthen brand narrative capabilities. Different from the traditional technical parameter promotion path used by traditional foundry, the joint project significantly improves the brand awareness and emotional connection of end users through designer IP empowerment, scene-based content dissemination and offline immersive experience space construction. In the next three years, Bonda plans to launch at least one designer joint series every year, and plan to build 'Bonda Design Lab' open innovation platform to continuously link the world's cutting-edge design forces.

With the development of the global construction industry to green, intelligent and humanized, Bonda's cross-border practice with design as the medium may provide a new paradigm for manufacturing enterprises in the Asia-Pacific region to explore branding.
