Merah is not a holding company in the financial sense. It is an integrated curated company whose four subsidiaries share clients, archives, and pipeline, and whose revenues are designed to balance the cyclicality of the art market with longer-dated income from design, manufacturing, and hospitality.
A relationship that starts at the gallery often continues through the studio and into the villas — and vice versa.
Collectors meet Indonesian artists in our gallery; many commission furniture from Merah Living to live alongside the work, often in pieces co-developed with the artist.
Merah Design’s curatorial-space practice gives the gallery a permanent in-house architect — and offers institutional clients a single team that can plan, build, and program a new space.
The villas in Bali are a permanent showroom: every interior is furnished by Merah Living, designed by Merah Design, and hung with the gallery’s artists. Focused on curated art villa short term rentals.
One finance, legal, brand, and archive team serves all four companies, lowering overhead and protecting the consistency of standards across markets.
