A platform for design and architecture from Borneo

Concave House

Set within the waterfront enclave of Paradise Island, the residence reinterprets Palm Springs modernism through a contemporary Gold Coast lens. Strong geometry, fluid curves and restrained materials frame water, landscape and skyline, while layered thresholds balance privacy and openness. Generous glazing connects living spaces to terraces, pool and pontoon, creating a seamless relationship between architecture, light and waterfront living experiences

Alfred Wallace Gallery

Design Stage, Malaysia, Sarawak

In 2013, we developed a proposal for a temporary exhibition on Alfred Russell Wallace, focusing on his time and discoveries in Sarawak. The exhibition aimed to introduce Wallace’s work to the public, particularly younger visitors, through an engaging and immersive experience. Inspired by his moth nets, we designed a series of fabric rooms that transformed the gallery into a journey through his research and discoveries. The exhibition combined historical information, visual displays and interactive elements to create an accessible and memorable experience for visitors of all ages.

Cascadale Apartment Singapore

This renovation of a duplex apartment unit on Singapore's east coast aimed to make best use of the unusual lofty upper level to create a luminous interior optimised for living and entertaining. The lower level was injected with natural light in order to create well-lit and ventilated new usuable spaces such as the stair-study. A limited palette of materials was selected for their tactile qualities, including natural oak floors and cabinetry, luxurious marble slabs, and rough-cut timber panels, juxtaposed against floating white volumes.

Serian Government Office Complex

Built, Malaysia, Sarawak

The proposed Serian Government Office Complex (GOC) serves as a centralised hub for key administrative departments within the newly established Serian Division. Inspired by the Bidayuh Longhouse and Baruk, the design reflects community, unity, and shared purpose. Multiple building blocks are arranged in a clustered layout, connected by curved corridors around a landscaped courtyard. At its heart, a Baruk-inspired structure functions as a social and civic focal point, housing a multi-purpose hall and exhibition space for public engagement.

Special Projects, 2026, Malaysia, Sarawak, Pioneer Architect

Ar. Philip Chang Foh Phing (1952–2023) was a pioneer architect in Sarawak whose career spanned public service, private practice, and professional advocacy. Educated at the University of Sydney, his formative years in Australia shaped both his political awareness and practical approach to building. After returning to Sarawak, he worked in JKR before co-founding United Consultants, delivering major public projects including the Kuching Waterfront. A committed mentor and advocate, Philip remained actively engaged in practice and professional institutions until his passing.

RT Cargo

Built, Malaysia, Sarawak

Designed by MinWee Architects, the former 1980s car showroom was transformed into a new office for a logistics company with minimal demolition. Most existing structures were retained, while new additions—mainly lightweight steel—were introduced for speed and cost efficiency. A steel mezzanine creates an open-plan office, and the old dealership rooms now house back-of-house functions. A new single-storey, container-inspired conference block fronts the site. Completed in nine months, the project relied on on-site decision-making and close client involvement, serving as valuable training for the young team.

Pearls of Wisdom

Installation, Taiwan

The 2026 Taoyuan Land Art Festival brought together artists and architects from 14 countries to create site-specific installations along Taiwan’s 35-kilometre Pearl Coast. Through collaboration, community engagement, and a deep response to the coastal landscape, the festival demonstrates how art can foster cultural dialogue, strengthen local identity, and leave a lasting legacy beyond the exhibition itself.

Returning to Where It Began

Design Stage, Malaysia, Sarawak

Returning to my middle school after twenty years, I came back not as a student but as an architect. What began as casual conversations evolved into small proposals—refurbishing spaces and improving circulation. These modest interventions reflect a thoughtful approach, where sensitively introducing new elements supports and reinvigorates the existing. Good architecture does not need to be flamboyant to work well. In schools, it becomes the quiet backdrop where everyday life unfolds and new memories are formed.
