Can you walk us through your design process? How do you bring your ideas to life?

We strongly believe that great design doesn't always need to be built on complex concepts. Inspiration can come from anywhere, and often the most effective solutions are the simplest ones. Our design process began with observing and understanding problems at a fundamental level, followed by exploring creative yet simple ways to solve them. From there, we translated the ideas into practical designs that balanced functionality, aesthetics, and human experience.

Given the fact that this was a two-decade-old property, what were the challenges, and how were they resolved?

A maximalist approach to reflect a thoughtful, cohesive residence
