When it comes to architectural and interior design, working with the right experts can make all the difference. Since 2003, Towner + Partners Studio has been delivering tailored design solutions for hospitality, food & beverage, retail, and commercial clients. Based in Hong Kong, with offices in Toronto and soon Kuala Lumpur, we bring a global perspective combined with local expertise. Here’s why partnering with us can elevate your next project.

Deep Understanding of Local Building Codes and Regulations
One of the biggest challenges in architectural and interior design is ensuring that your project complies with local building codes and regulations. At Towner + Partners Studio, we work closely with the Architect of Record in every location where we provide design services. This alliance guarantees that your design not only looks great but also meets all legal and safety requirements.
This approach saves you time and money by avoiding costly redesigns or delays caused by non-compliance. For example, when working on a commercial space in Toronto, our collaboration with local architects ensured smooth approval processes and adherence to fire safety standards, which are particularly strict in that region.
Comprehensive Design Services from New Builds to Adaptive Re-use
Our expertise covers a wide range of architectural services. Whether you are planning a new build or looking to breathe new life into an existing structure through adaptive re-use, we have the skills and experience to deliver.
Adaptive re-use projects require a careful balance between preserving the character of the original building and integrating modern functionality. For instance, we recently transformed a historic warehouse into a vibrant retail space in Hong Kong. The project maintained the building’s industrial charm while introducing contemporary design elements that attracted new customers and increased foot traffic.
Long-term Client Support Through Retainer Services
Design doesn’t end when the project is complete. We believe in building lasting relationships with our clients. That’s why we offer retainer services to continue supporting your needs after the initial design phase.
This ongoing partnership means you have access to expert advice for maintenance, renovations, or expansions without starting from scratch. One of our hospitality clients in Kuala Lumpur has benefited from this approach, receiving regular updates and design tweaks that keep their venue fresh and competitive in a fast-changing market.
Global Reach with Local Expertise
Having offices in Hong Kong and Toronto, and soon in Kuala Lumpur, allows us to serve clients across different regions while respecting local cultures and market demands. This global reach combined with local knowledge means your project benefits from international design trends and proven practices adapted to your specific location.
For example, our retail design in Toronto incorporated North American consumer behavior insights, while our hospitality projects in Hong Kong focused on maximizing space efficiency in dense urban environments.
