South Korea based design team Teo Yang Studio has won the highly sought title of Best Luxury Commercial Interior Design for ‘Honnêtes Gens’ in South Korea in this year’s Luxury Lifestyle Awards.

Founded by Teo Yang in 2009, the practice has worked on global projects taking them to Amsterdam, Berlin and LA and designing for many of the boutique hotels and homes of the rich and famous. Not only catching admiration from clients but Teo’s projects have also been received with acclaim from many of the trusted design publications such as Vogue Living, Elle Décor and Lemon Tree.

The Teo Yang Studio has long been the ‘turn-to team who are trusted to visualise the ideas of a discerning clientele. Whether that is creating high-end residential spaces or branded commercial projects, each holds a unique emphasis on thoughtful, modern architecture with perfected finishes that add timeless elegance.

This approach can clearly be seen within their work on ‘Honnêtes Gens’, a French-styled restaurant that unabashedly celebrates the romance of its European origins. A light neutral palette has been used to provide an airy, intimate aesthetic, while clever lighting adds high and low lights to create a modern, exclusive twist. Teo Yang Studio perfects the balance of uncluttered elegance while cleverly selecting materials that add interest and talking points without overcomplicating the design scheme.

“Honnêtes Gens provided the team with the perfect opportunity to highlight our extensive knowledge in creating outstanding, thoughtful luxury design within a commercial setting,” commented Teo Yang “To be acknowledged for this project is down to the dedication of our team and the trust of our clients who often come to us with a concept, while we use our experience to realise and excel expectations. We are overjoyed to receive the title of Best Luxury Commercial Interior Design for ‘Honnêtes Gens’ in South Korea, and it’s an honour to share this with our amazing team.”

The Luxury Lifestyle Awards panel were impressed by the clever use of lighting, accessories and a mix of materials that combine effortlessly to create a luxury intimate dining space that will successfully uphold the ethos of the restaurant.
