When we first met Lucas, we thought he appeared to be too young to handle our project (resale unit that needs a major overhaul). But after speaking with him, he was a friendly person with really great experience and expertise, we always love his insights and views of the project. He and his team were very patient and work really closely with us throughout the whole journey. What I have to say that I am most surprise is that he was able to help me custom make furnitures from overseas, mainly from Bali. He even bought really lovely handles and knobs for my cabinets. It was a very different experience with Lucas and his team from our past experience with other ID. They actually really do site visits a lot and they pay a lot of attention to details. We are still in contact after 2 years and I have referred many friends to Lucas and his team, I hope he and his company will grow even more as they really deserve the appreciation for their dedication. KUDOS !

Hey Lucas, take care and hope you recover well soon man! But much thanks to your team of Hua Mulans (Girlpower) Nicole, Rachel and Monica. Let me share my review in point form so it is easier to digest. 1) Before signing with ID, The only firm to give me 3Ds (6 views of the home) before paying any deposit. Detailed quotation and fair T&C. 2) After signing, went to at least 4 tiles shops, 2 Laminate shop, talk about Taobao purchase, then 3Ds were changed accordingly. An assistant were introduced to us, in this case Nicole. 3) Reno starts - to be fair, Lucas broke his hand at this point because of an accident on site, so Nicole had to takeover, then Rachel their most senior project manager came to assists too. It was fine as we didn't change much, so it was more or less accordingly to the latest master plans by Lucas. 4) During Reno, prompt updates, progress not fast but confirm not slow, like there's works happening weekly. Any add ons or variation, they asked and get approval from us too. Our previous ID never, do already then give us a bomb... 5) Met with their workers on site, all quite professional to be honest. Never talk much, focus on work 6) Finish Reno, went through an on site inspection with them before officially completing the home. Just to share, they were the ones that requested for he site inspection and walk thru of the whole unit, not us, so this shows they are quite the steady bunch! 7) Completed our payment to them, now waiting for Lucas and team to come to our house warming, but after Ghost month, and they will then do a photoshoot. So all in all, me and my wife are very pleased with their design, works and quality, service also very warm and friendly. I hope this reviews helps add some glitter & gloss for Lucas and Archive design.

The renovation projects aren’t just jobs! I would recommend Lucas and Nicole in a heartbeat. We engaged ARCHIVE on a very complex project. They orchestrated the whole thing, and amazingly came in under budget. They worked hard to alleviate all concerns on that front, so that we didn’t’ have to. Our home is exactly what we imagined when starting out with them. More importantly, Lucas and Nicole are caring and talented people that you can trust.
