Studio / about

Established by co-founders Calvin Cheng and Wich Chau, JAAK is a Hong Kong-based interior design studio with a predominant focus on residential design.

The duo’s shared design values and aesthetics led to the inception of the studio in 2014 with a strong belief in the ability of good design in transforming people and redefining the experience within their homes.

“Modest, Subtle, and Timeless”

Attributes, instrumental in guiding our methodology, as we endeavour to create emotive experiences that embody a sense of warmth, comfort, belonging, and security. With a diverse team of creative spirits, our collaborative approach to design leads us to explore endless possibilities, an outcome fuelled by the engagement and dialogues with our clients.

Our commitment to sustainability informs our take on colour and materiality, adding value and tactility to each environment which articulates the unique narrative that defines our projects. While such an outcome may embrace a person’s values, we hope to impel people to question and reflect on their way of life.
