About Us
A practice shaped by people, place and possibility.
Founded in Singapore in 2014, TA.LE is an architecture and interior design practice led by Tay Yanling and Lionel Leow.
Our studio
Good design can influence everyday life for the better.
We place the user's experience at the centre of every project. Our work brings together architecture, interior design and placemaking to create environments that are functional, emotionally engaging and responsive to their context.
Environmental responsibility is part of that process. Through adaptive reuse, material upcycling and circular design thinking, we look for ways to extend the life of existing buildings and create lasting value for future generations.
The studio
Our studio brings together architects and designers who work collaboratively across scales, from buildings and interiors to the material details that shape everyday experience.
