Futuremade Studio Malaysia – Utilitarian Fashion

Futuremade Studio Malaysia, often abbreviated as FTMD., has quickly carved a name for itself in the regional fashion landscape. Known for its clean lines, muted palettes, and functionality-first design, the brand blends minimalism with utilitarian fashion, a balance that speaks to a new generation seeking both style and practicality in their everyday wardrobe.

The Origins of Futuremade Studio Malaysia

Founded by Tunway Yeoh, also known as Xiao Pi Hai, Futuremade Studio started as a creative project that merged lifestyle, culture, and design. Tunway’s background as a content creator and visual storyteller influenced FTMD.’s strong brand identity, giving it a unique voice in Malaysia’s fashion scene. The philosophy is simple yet powerful: design clothing that encourages people to explore life beyond screens.

Utilitarian Fashion as a Core Identity

At its heart, Futuremade Studio Malaysia embodies utilitarian fashion. Collections often feature:

• Functional details like multiple pockets, adjustable features, and weather-resistant fabrics.

• Neutral tones and earthy palettes that make layering effortless.

• Silhouettes inspired by workwear and military apparel, updated with a minimalist aesthetic.

These elements aren’t just decorative. They’re designed for real-life adaptability, whether for urban living, travel, or outdoor leisure.

A Lifestyle Beyond Fashion

More than just clothing, Futuremade Studio Malaysia is a lifestyle movement. Its concept store in Petaling Jaya’s Gasket Alley has become a hub for community engagement, creative exchange, and cultural storytelling.

The brand’s collaborative spirit extends across Malaysia’s creative scene. Together with Against Lab, Futuremade co-launched 604 Gift Store in Penang, a cultural outpost that merges fashion, design, and community experiences.

At the same time, Futuremade has elevated its presence on the global stage through collaborations with international heavyweights like Timberland, Vans, and Reebok. These partnerships reinterpret classic silhouettes through FTMD.’s utilitarian lens, further cementing its reputation as one of Malaysia’s most influential fashion exports.

Each event strengthens the brand’s position as not just a Malaysian success story, but a key voice in shaping modern Asian fashion identity.
