David holds the studio's design direction — material palettes, spatial narrative, the calibration of light and detail across every project. His work spans two decades of resorts, hotels, F&B destinations, and residences across Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and the wider Asia region. Based in Ho Chi Minh City, he leads the studio's creative practice with a discipline learned across heritage restoration and contemporary new-build alike. He believes design integrity is held at the joint and the junction — and stays close to the work, on site, until completion.
