Location: The office of Story of Us. “Our office means a lot to us as we put
a lot of effort into building up this space. From the colours to the materials, all
that is in the space is a representation of who we are,” says Mei.
What is your firm’s design identity?
Story Of Us focus on exquisite details, which are reflected in our fabrications and designs.
What makes your firm and its work unique?
Often, we challenge ourselves with each project to give it that unique touch. We travel a lot to source and gain material knowledge and fabrication insights, and come up with new ideas every day. We also relate our work to our personal experiences – the things we see and the emotions we feel.
What big plans do you have?
Story Of Us will be putting greater focus on incorporating technology into today’s homes.
What is your best design advice?
Never lose your sense of wonder. Keep exploring. Be wowed by the beauty around you. And love, as it keeps all things together.
“Regardless of how big or small a space is, a well-designed space is about how it makes you feel and how it functions as intended.”
– Mei Teh, Principal Design Consultant
