What Miaja Design Group does

Miaja Design Group is a Singapore-headquartered international interior architecture and design firm, founded in 1995 and led by Managing & Creative Director Isabelle Miaja. The firm provides end-to-end design services for luxury brand hotels and resorts, commercial developments, medical tourism facilities, high-end residential properties, and F&B clients across Asia-Pacific, including the Maldives, Thailand, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore. Its service portfolio spans conceptual architecture, interior design, art consultancy (through the MIAJA Gallery and Miaja Art Collections sub-brands), graphic design and signage, lighting consultancy, and landscape design — delivered through an in-house specialized team with project-based custom pricing on multi-year contracts.

The firm's core technology is its integrated creative capability rather than software: design narratives are developed in-house and tailored to each property's cultural and natural context, exemplified by the nature-inspired W Maldives transformation (77 villas, 2023) and the Ainu-heritage-informed Club Med Sahoro restaurants (2025). Notable enterprise clients include W Maldives, Club Med, Bumrungrad International Hospital, Lotte Hotel Busan, and Jumeirah Olhahali. The company also operates Journal Artistique, a quarterly art, interior design, and lifestyle magazine published under its Maison Miaja sub-brand.

Miaja Design Group generates revenue through professional design fees on a project basis, acquired via direct enterprise sales and relationship-driven engagement with hotel operators, resort developers, healthcare institutions, and high-net-worth residential clients. The firm is privately held, founder-controlled, with no disclosed external institutional investment. Geographic expansion into the Philippines is scheduled for early 2026 under newly appointed Country Lead Director Julian Miaja, targeting hospitality, residential, and healthcare sectors in the Southeast Asian market.
