Focusing on male and unisex segments, the edgy store delivers selected innovative products from South Korea, USA, Australia, and Japan showcased in fun and creative surroundings. Each brand has its own story and unique inspiration, reflected in their designs and original focus, whether it is travel, technology, music, photography, or fashion.

The internationally hip and most sought-after dessert stall will soon open at every Project X location.

“We look around and see what people like to do – people like to shop and discover edgy pieces, and they like to hang out. It is a lifestyle. We see an opportunity here, thus as a brand builder we carefully curate the products and present them in a contemporary concept. In this market, we want to continue being edgy, modern, and yet remain loyal to our heritage,” says Irwan Danny Mussry, President Director & CEO of Time International.

Simple and yet appealing, calming yet energising, with wooden accents and a palette of white and grey which blends harmoniously with the products. Project X is the up and coming style haven for game changers and opinion leaders.
