This issue of Jurnal Kreatif presents a diverse range of research topics in product design, architecture, and design innovation, highlighting the integration of functionality, aesthetics, technology, and user-centered approaches. The featured studies include the exploration of modern Pop Art architecture in mixed-use apartment planning in Samarinda, the design of public seating facilities along the iconic Jalan Tunjungan corridor in Surabaya, and the development of pop-up cards as an emotional education medium for children aged 4–6 years. Other papers examine the design of a semi-portable hamster cage with an automatic feeding system powered by the hamster's kinetic energy, as well as a wooden writing desk using finger-joint laminated material and knockdown construction. Collectively, these studies demonstrate the breadth of design practice in addressing spatial, educational, functional, and technical challenges through creative and context-sensitive solutions. Overall, this issue highlights the interdisciplinary nature of design research in connecting innovative concepts, material exploration, technological applications, and human needs to support the development of meaningful design solutions.
