“Boutique” is originally a french word for a small shopping outlet, usually one that specializes in elite and fashionable items. Recently, the term "boutique" has started to be applied to various niche items and places that are produced in small numbers at very high quality in design.

The word Boutique expresses our philosophy: we aim to offer our clients a unique and creative range of à la carte interior design services. Whether you need a big or little help, come to our “boutique” to find the treasures that will make your home the magic place it should be.

PRODUCTION

Melia is born and raised in Hong Kong. Growing up in such an efficient city, she developed the passion to make ideas become reality.

 

Her ability to transform the most complicated project into a smooth realization has allowed her to work for the very demanding luxury industry. She has been responsible for the production of exhibitions, pop-up stores all around Asia for the past 10 years. During this period, she became very familiar with construction processes and has been working with numerous local contractors with which she keeps trustful relationships.

Apart from her passion for logistic, she is also very curious about other cultures and trends and has been extensively traveling all around the globe. This curiosity naturally led her to the interior design field as it is the most perfect expression of different lifestyles.
