1965

In 1965, Yong Chee Leong began the business of making drafting boards and stands. A friend of his helped coined the name Artwright by combining the word 'ART' for being in the drawing business, and 'RIGHT' for doing the right thing. 'W'was added to the name because the products had to compete with imports from England.

Founded on the principles of good design and quality, Artwright has grown from strength to strength, and has since evolved into computer furniture, and system furniture, and today into the complete workplace solutions. Our core values have made Artwright to be one leading selections of choice for quality and design.

1985

In 1985, Yong Yoke Keong, Son of Yong Chee Leong join the business and introduce a range of well-designed and high quality small computer tables to complement the desktop computers made by IBM and Apple. These products were made of honeycomb core and were extremely well accepted worldwide.

1987–2014

In 1987, Yong Yoke Keong founded the Artwright Group. Between then and 2008, YYK introduced several innovative office systems, including MXi and MXi2. These systems were designed to fulfil interior designers’ architectural visions by offering maximum flexibility, outstanding performance, and the clean-line simplicity of a solid panel-based system.

In 2014, the company introduced two new premium desking systems, System T1 and System B2, which were developed to create office spaces that are more flexible, innovative, and modern.
