Emma Maxwell Design, is a multi award-winning interior design practice based in Singapore. The studios work covers a broad spectrum from small local tapas bars to resort and hotel projects and prestigious Michelin-starred restaurants, retail and residential design.
With an approach that honours artisan skills, the studio works to create innovative concepts which transports patrons into a narrative removed from the pressures of everyday life. The studios design sensibility includes a sculptor’s focus on space, texture and form.
We think a little more deeply than how a space will look. When we commence a project we spend a lot of time thinking about how the guest or resident will feel in the space.
Most recently, the studio received the Best International project at the IDEA awards in Australia, Best Interior award from Italy’s A’Design International for 12,000 Francs in Hong Kong. Maxwell was honoured with a Silver in the Best Interior category. Also their Flume lighting collection won the Best of the Best for Product Design in the Architecture & Design Awards Asia Pacific. The studio was recognised for best restaurant in the Architecture and Design Asia Pacific awards as well as achieving Travel + Leisure's Top 4 Restaurant Design.
