What Studio AKAMÁ does

Studio AKAMÁ is a privately held architecture and interior design studio operating as the tradename of DESIGN & QUALITY ESTATES SLU, headquartered in Port d'Andratx, Mallorca, Spain. The firm delivers bespoke architectural and interior design services for ultra-high-net-worth private individuals and luxury hospitality developers across global locations including Mallorca, Dubai, Indonesia, London, Austria, Croatia, Ibiza, and Zanzibar, supported by offices in Mallorca, Barcelona, and Cape Town. Its core offering spans full architectural design, interior design, furniture selection, and art curation, executed as integrated multi-year commissions for private residences (typically 1,500–3,000 m2) and boutique resort developments.

The studio differentiates through a unified design philosophy emphasizing formal simplicity, natural materials, and environmental integration, with formal credentials in sustainable architecture including Passivhaus certification methodology and BREEAM environmental ratings. Memberships in the International Passivhaus Association, the Mallorca Preservation Foundation, and the Green Building Council underpin this positioning. The 22-person team delivers signature named projects such as Casa Amara (Passivhaus-certified, WAF 2025 Finalist), Casa Kalos (BREEAM-rated), Casa Fuente (Dubai), Nihi Sumba Resort (WAF 2026 Finalist), and Casa Punxa, establishing brand recognition validated by international awards and the Spanish government's 'Interés General' designation in 2022.

The business model is professional services on a project-based fee structure with individually negotiated pricing. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, relying on referrals within UHNW networks, direct inquiries, and the studio's portfolio reputation rather than outbound marketing or intermediary channels. Revenue is concentrated in low-volume, high-value bespoke commissions with no disclosed financial figures, no external funding, and no institutional ownership; the firm operates as a founder-led design practice.
