About US

Linehouse is an architecture and interior design practice established in 2013 by Alex Mok (Chinese-Swedish) and Briar Hickling (from New Zealand). Both have completed extensive work in Asia, Pacific and abroad.Linehouse operates as a platform to investigate the rituals of inhabitation and how these daily moments can be celebrated through design, transforming the mundane into performative acts.Linehouse is a collaboration of like-minded individuals from various backgrounds and cultures. The practice has international experience in design and construction, from the small scale and the intricate, to the grand and public.The studio works on projects of varying scales and typologies that allow explorations of both the poetic idea and pragmatic solution. Projects are approached in a holistic manner combining different disciplines: architecture, interiors, product design and graphic design; and drawing on our experience to create new ideas and outputs emphasising qualities of construction, detail, materials and light.Each brief is approached individually, creating a poetic concept for each client through research, site context, history and responding to the client’s brief. Through the process of design, each project has a strong narrative and an element of whimsy and voyeurism, creating a unique spatial experience.Linehouse has been featured widely by the press around the world, including Wallpaper*, FRAME, AD, ELLE Décor, Dezeen, Detail, Archdaily, Designboom, Perspective Magazine and countless print and online media.In 2016, Linehouse was awarded twice at the A&D Trophy Awards in the retail and F&B categories, and named Judges’ Choice and winner in the shopping space category at the Asia Pacific Interior Design Awards (APIDA). Named Emerging Interior Practice of the Year by World Interior News in 2015, Linehouse has also been awarded at Restaurant and Bar Design Awards and Design for Asia (DFA) Awards.

Linehouse是由Alex Mok（华裔瑞典人）和Briar Hickling（来自新西兰）于2013年成立的建筑和室内设计实践。两人都在亚洲、太平洋地区和国外完成了大量的工作。Linehouse作为一个平台，研究居住的仪式，以及如何通过设计来庆祝这些日常时刻，将平凡的东西转化为表演性的行为。工作室在设计和施工方面具有国际经验，从小规模和复杂的项目，到宏伟的公共项目。我们以整体的方式来处理项目，结合不同的学科：建筑、室内、产品设计和平面设计；并利用我们的经验来创造新的想法和产出，强调建筑、细节、材料和光线的质量。每个简报都是单独处理的，通过研究、现场背景、历史和回应客户的简报，为每个客户创造一个诗意的概念。通过设计过程，每个项目都有强烈的叙事性和异想天开的元素，创造出独特的空间体验。Linehouse被世界各地的媒体广泛报道，包括Wallpaper*、FRAME、AD、ELLE Décor、Dezeen、Detail、Archdaily、Designboom、Perspective Magazine和无数的印刷和网络媒体。 2016年，Linehouse在A&D奖杯奖中两次获得零售和餐饮类奖项，并在亚太室内设计奖（APIDA）中被评为评委选择奖和购物空间类冠军。2015年，Linehouse被《世界室内新闻》评为年度新兴室内实践，还在餐厅和酒吧设计奖和亚洲设计（DFA）奖中获奖。
