Our passionate, close-knit team is composed of international designers with a network of specialists to create humanistic, refined, fresh aesthetics for hospitality-driven projects. Our studio is based in Hong Kong and works globally.
STATEMENT OF ART:Architecture is an emotional, spatial experience produced by both the user and the creator. Our inspirations stem from the
observation, speculation and analysis of contextual aspects such as historical, environmental, cultural and social factors. We poetically interpret the exchanges of these factors to create humanistic narratives for our designs. We are passionate about using artistic representations of drawings and models to explore ‘out-of-the-box’ ideas. These are the driving forces for us to create designs rich in intellectual and imaginative qualities.
