“设计的核心理念应该是为人服务，优秀的创作承载着超越美学的价值。”

“… a masterpiece of marrying different personalities.”

“Inspired by her clients’ stories, this interior designer redefines the way they live with unique, emotive designs.”

“I love designing restaurants because of the human-centric approach we take in our work. We try to imagine how a person might experience the space before defining the experience.”

“Many designers marry form and function, but none do it like Cherin.”

“LAANK essentially pieces all of this together – the balancing of the life of the space, the people in it and pragmatism (something we don’t run from).”

“Creativity doesn’t stop with design.”

“Good design should be practical and carry value beyond aesthetics.”

“When you take care of a space, it’s natural to want to go into this super meticulous approach of creating every item, big or small, to communicate the whole experience and intent of the space.”

“I try to understand my clients by getting to know them on a personal level–their hopes and experiences. That way I can better relate to and translate their expectations into design.”

“One reason why I particularly enjoy this business, and the challenges that go along with it, is the opportunity to solve with design solutions.”

“在时尚和服饰见穿插她们设计的园艺。”

“Our style is not tied to trends so it’s not important to have a signature look, but clients appreciate the meticulous design that goes into it.”

“Our design philosophy is about pushing boundaries, trying to challenge norms and recreate, but always coming back to functionality and feasibility. Being a ‘rebel’ is definitely something we can identify with but we don’t rebel without a reason.”

“…舍弃一般设计元素，空间规划满足屋主的生活需求，以易维持打理，简易舒适，适宜款待亲友，动植物皆可入住为主。“

“A ‘no design approach’, where the look is the result of just piecing together different personalities within a physical space.”

“…masterfully juggle creating spaces which allowed their clients to be together, yet separate when they wished.”

“There is a sense of wonder in every corner and the possibilities are endless.”

“…located right in front of the beach, gives visitors a glimpse into the sailor’s world…”

“…a store design reflecting their legacy and retail experience that would set them apart from mass brands.”

“A family run optical business that has taken the bold leap to rebrand and position themselves as an established brand with a strong legacy.”

“LAANK introduces minimal lines and soothing shades of blue encapsulating a contemporary yacht in the update of the Boathouse Phuket resort.”

“This is pretty much what LAANK does with its designs—we redefine.”

“Honest and welcoming, this restaurant by LAANK is easy to like.”

“LAANK turns the traditional stark white clinic aesthetics on its head with a bold art-deco influenced interior of black lines and geometric patterns.”

“Design should not be something that is generated purely out of the intent of aesthetics and function…”

“A genteel old-world atmosphere pervades Ms Violet Oon’s new venture National Kitchen.”

“LAANK’s interior design of Violet Oon brings to the forefront the influences of both the restaurant’s doyenne and Nonya cuisine”

“The walls of National Kitchen by Violet Oon tell stories. Fashioned after a Peranakan home …”

“Original Peranakan tiles add a dose of vibrancy and heritage …”

“What used to look like a cafe with an open entrance and closely packed tables is now a cosy but classy and more comfortable restaurant.”

“From the outside, the shop looks sharp and gloriously modern with its black and sleek exterior…”
