Robert Cheng
Robert Cheng is an architect, interior designer, and the founder of Brewin Design Office (BDO). With a broad experience in various scales, programmes and typologies, Robert continually approaches his portfolio of luxury residential interior design and construction from a craft-oriented position. Taking his understanding of the tectonics in construction and specificities of materials directly into his process, Robert developed a design principle for architecture closely related to ‘the making of things’, ensuring the basis for conceptual design discourse and procedure in his work.
Robert holds a Masters of Architecture in Urban Design from Harvard University, and spent his formative professional years at Tsao & Mckown Architects in New York City as an apprentice to architect Calvin Tsao, and later joined Atelier Jean Nouvels in Paris. In 2011, he founded BDO, an architecture and interior design studio based in Hong Kong and Singapore that is dedicated to crafting bespoke architectural and interior design interventions across Asia. BDO’s work has been widely published and was shortlisted for the President’s Design Award in Singapore in 2016, the highest accolade for design in the country.
