Pocca is a Shanghai-based design studio founded in 2020. We have both local practice in China and internationally collaboration. As a “Playground of Conceptive and Cheerful Actions”, we help design-conscious commissioners transform chaotic surroundings into clear and lasting episodes through a “Concept – Research – Edit – Integrate – Devise” approach. Occasionally, we conduct studio-driven research and projects, focusing on visual aesthetics and culture in a cross-cultural context.
