SHICHAO AND DANIEL

​​​​

Founded in Hong Kong by Shichao and Daniel, partners in both life and design, our studio grew from years of shared experience in world-renowned firms such as Yabu Pushelberg and Hirsch Bedner Associates. Across cities from New York to Tokyo, we’ve led hospitality projects for global brands including InterContinental, Hilton, Hyatt, and Marriott. With a combined two decades of design experience across North America and Asia, our perspective is both diverse and deeply rooted.

Our spaces are designed to linger in memory, to evoke something unspoken, to hold meaning beyond the surface. Every project is a search for that emotional resonance. We draw from the unique spirit of place—its culture, history, and imperfections—and translate it into spaces that are contemporary yet rooted, refined yet human. Through close collaboration with architects, developers, and local artisans, we aim to go beyond expectations, transforming imagination into spaces that feel both inevitable and intimate.
