Praxcis Design

What Praxcis Design does

Praxcis Design Sdn. Bhd. is a privately held Malaysian landscape architecture firm headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, founded in 1996 and led by principal Ms Yap Nga Tuan. The firm delivers professional landscape architecture and design services covering soft landscaping (planting, vegetation) and hard landscaping (structural elements, paving, water features), unified by a sustainable, thematic-based design process that balances biophilic principles with functionality, form, texture, colour, light, and shadows. Its work targets four primary customer segments: property developers (residential townships, mixed-use developments, urban streetscapes), hospitality operators (hotels, resorts, theme parks), educational institutions (university campuses), and corporate/commercial clients (offices, headquarters, research facilities). Notable enterprise clients include SP Setia (across multiple Setia EcoHill phases), Somerset Hotel and Starling Mall at Damansara Uptown, Jade Hills, The Mansions @ ParkCity Heights, Taylor's University Lakeside Campus, and Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman.

The firm operates a project-based professional services revenue model, earning design fees on a quote-per-project basis with no publicly disclosed pricing. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales via direct engagement with property developers, hospitality operators, and institutional clients, supported by a top-of-funnel marketing presence through its company website, Facebook, and Instagram that showcases portfolio and award credentials. Praxcis Design has no subsidiaries, no disclosed funding, no M&A activity, and a single office location, concentrating operations within Malaysia. The firm has accumulated multiple high-credibility regional and global awards between 2010 and 2020, including EdgeProp-ILAM Malaysia's Sustainable Landscape Awards, Malaysia Landscape Architecture Awards, FIABCI World Prix D'Excellence, and Asia Property Awards.
