2. (n.) a Hong Kong-based interdisciplinary design studio founded in 2014 that explores progressive vernacular concepts through architecture, branding, and interior design.
Our mission.
DEFT exists to create quietly brilliant projects – spaces and ideas with innovation and adaptability that deliver value to the people who use them.
Rather than operating within a defined aesthetic, DEFT nurtures a diverse mix of styles and skills to provide thoughtful and innovative design solutions that evolve with the needs of each project.
Who we are.
Founded in 2014, DEFT is led by two partners, Norman Ung and Peter Lampard, who met while pursuing their Masters Degree in Architecture at the University of Hong Kong.
