we design cafés, villas, houses, bakeshops, clinics and boarding houses. we are tings.
opening a café, a shop or a clinic means every square metre has to earn its place. we plan around your brand, your budget and the way customers move, and we can phase the build so your business keeps running while it happens.
everything begins with your story. we sit down to understand your daily routines and long-term plans, then design a home around how your family actually lives, today and ten years from now.
homestays, villas and kos are judged by how often they are booked. we design efficient plans, durable materials and rooms guests remember, so your property rents well and stays easy to maintain.
a small, forgotten building can become a landmark. we work with the walls and openings you already have to keep costs down, and change everything else. we start from what is already there.
how we work
from the first sketch to the final cost estimate, we carry the design, so you can focus on what comes next: opening your doors, or finally moving in.
decide what to design
where it beginsit starts with a decision: a home, a café, a boarding house or a clinic. we help you turn the idea into a clear brief.

space needs discussion
one or two meetingswe talk through the spaces you need and agree on what the design is locked to.
- lock the area: the rooms you need are fitted to the floor area
- lock the budget: the cost stays fixed, and spaces may be more compact
- programming: which spaces, and how big each one is
- how you live or work day to day, and the personal things that matter
