A small practice with
a long memory.

Design Code is an interior architecture and turnkey practice based in Chittagong — founded in 2012 and quietly at work ever since.

The Studio

Design that improves the way people live.

Founded in 2012 by Faisal Hassan Siddique, Design Code has spent the last twelve years quietly making residential and commercial interiors across Bangladesh — one project at a time, and without much noise about it.

We work closely with each client from the first conversation through to the final handover, and we stay on as long as our work is in the room. We believe in restraint, good materials and the kind of details that reveal themselves slowly.

We are not interested in fashion. We are interested in the quiet, enduring parts of a room — the way light falls, the way a door closes, the way stone feels underfoot a decade after it was laid.

What We Believe

Four quiet principles.

01 · Restraint

Less, but better

We remove before we add. Every material, fixture and detail earns its place in the room.

02 · Craft

Made by hand

We work with makers we trust. Joinery, metalwork, stone — cut and finished locally to last.

03 · Daylight

Plan for the sun

Every plan begins with the sun path. Windows, shading and orientation decide the brief.

04 · Stewardship

Built to last

We stay close to a project for years after handover. Good buildings get better with care.

The People

A small team, a long bench.

Good design should improve the way people live & work.
The rest is ornament — and we are not in the business of ornament.
