Broad incumbents

• AEDAS: Hong Kong-headquartered global architecture firm with offices across Asia and the Middle East. Closely comparable to RSP in scale (~1,000+ professionals), regional focus on Hong Kong, China, MENA, and Southeast Asia, and diversified typology mix across mixed-use, transport, hospitality, and residential commissions.
• Benoy: UK-headquartered international design firm with a strong presence in Asia (notably Singapore, Malaysia, China, and Middle East retail and mixed-use). Frequently on the same shortlists as RSP for major retail mall and mixed-use developer commissions in Asia.
• Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF): US-headquartered global architecture firm specializing in supertall towers and large-scale mixed-use developments. Directly comparable to RSP's work in trophy office towers (CapitaSpring-class), high-rise residential, and urban regeneration across Asia-Pacific.
• Gensler: US-headquartered global design firm ranked #1 on ENR Top 225 for years. Competes with RSP for commercial, retail, hospitality, and technology campus projects (e.g., Microsoft, CapitaLand-type clients) across Asia-Pacific; named in RSP internal team bios as a comparison firm in Asia commissions.
• HOK: US-headquartered global design, architecture, and engineering firm with significant Asia and Middle East operations. RSP's Malaysian Managing Director began his career at HOK San Francisco, signaling the firms are in the same talent and project competition pool for aviation, healthcare, and higher-education work.
• SOM (Skidmore, Owings & Merrill): US-headquartered global architecture, engineering, and urban design firm with deep practice in tall buildings and commercial skyscrapers. Competes with RSP on trophy office towers (Republic Plaza-class work) and is referenced in RSP team biographies as a former employer and benchmark.

Frequently competes with RSP on giga-projects in Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Greater China, and is mentioned in RSP's own team biographies (former collaborators) as a benchmark firm at the global tier.

Direct peers

• WOHA Architects: Singapore-based architecture practice known for sustainability-focused design and tropical modernism. Smaller in scale than RSP but competes on flagship sustainable commissions (BCA Green Mark Platinum projects) within the same Singapore ecosystem and frequently on the same award juries and prize shortlists.
• DP Architects: Singapore-headquartered architecture firm, comparable in scale and focus to RSP, with strong presence in residential, commercial, hospitality, and mixed-use developments across Asia-Pacific. RSP and DP Architects are the two most established Singapore-origin practices competing for many of the same marquee Asian developer commissions.

Others

• Heatherwick Studio: London-based design studio with deep overlap on landmark cultural and hospitality projects; RSP has collaborated with Heatherwick on the EDEN project and other signature commissions. Comparable in design ambition and project scale, though smaller in headcount and operating in an adjacent (more design-art) niche.
