Malaysia’s real estate sector is a vibrant yet challenging landscape. Over the past decade, the industry underwent a major boom, which led to rapid urbanization and construction of several many high-rise buildings and development of townships all across the nation. This boom was supported by expert architects that played a pivotal role in designing exceptional structures that supported the evolving consumer requirements. However, a key industry challenge is the lack of availability of good land where architects can unleash their creativity to great gorgeous spaces.
Nevertheless, within this segment, Bid Studio Architects, an architecture and urban planning firm, stands out as an upcoming firm in the industry, designing functionally and aesthetically pleasing structures that are suited to meet the needs of the users. Taking on challenging projects when clients bring strangely shaped or very small parcels of land, Bid Studio Architects rises to the challenge and delivers exquisite projects that not just align with the client’s aspiration, but truly reflect the company’s architectural prowess.
Expert Design Solutions
Bid Studio’s designing philosophy revolves around upholding the spatial quality by implementing space planning and architectural design practices aligned with the provided brief, designing parameters, and taking into consideration any limitations that may cause trouble in achieving the desired outcome. With hospitality and housing projects being the core business practice, Bid Studio Architects has completed a range of projects which demonstrate the team’s ability to bring innovative design ideas every time. The team takes a keen interest in finding the right balance between optimal space usage and integrating design elements that elevate how the space appears.
With the land being occupied quickly and development taking place at a very rapid pace designing is becoming increasingly complex, however, Bid Studio Architects ensures that it comes up with a concept that fulfills these parameters, across all its projects. To ensure every project it undertakes brings something unique, with a signature ‘Bid Studio Architects touch,' the company takes a human centered design approach for all its architectural design and planning initiatives. This hands-on process enables the team to optimize the site’s potential to the fullest.
“Urban matters are very relatable to Malaysia as we are still a developing country with a growing population, especially bigger cities like KL having influx of new population from across the country. As far as they are interested in urban matters, Bid Studio Architects are working on a few hospitality projects at the moment. However, Bid Studio Architects are not always doing housing and hospitality projects. In addition to their core practice, Bid Studio Architects enjoy exploring other design disciplines. Bid Studio Architects did a small fun design retrofitting little shops, and Leong participated in Melbourne Design Week 2024 exhibition for multifunctional pet furniture design”, shares Ar. Tan Yung Ren, Director.
A key practice opted for by the firm in its designing ventures is trying to seek sustainability of the project. However, the company has a unique perspective towards sustainability which sets it apart from competitors in the domain. Bid Studio Architects not only pays close attention to environmental sustainability, but also looks at it in the form of economic sustainability. With the purpose of creating spaces that are equally economically sustainable as well, the company works tirelessly to identify any gaps in every project, to ensure that every project is fulfilling its full potential. If that is not the case, the firm strives to find the right solutions that drive desired results.
This way, it provides its clients the best space utilization, ensuring they get the maximum benefit for their investment. The team at Bid Studio Architects sees this as a continuous learning process, unraveling how planning can transform a space from good to exceptional. A key element of Bid Studio’s unique edge is that the company aligns its designs with regulatory and municipal policies in an effective manner, ensuring that the projects it undertakes are beautifully created, and are in compliance with any municipal level policy and planning regulations. While policies continue to revamp and change, Bid Studio Architects remains strong in its adherence to any new changes.

Other than that, we always remind ourselves to be adaptable and embrace new ways of living and business models”, further shares Ar. Leong Yee Keong, Director.
As the company plans for its growth in the coming years, it remains steadfast in its commitment to keep learning on the genre of projects that it has been trusted with and is currently working on. The firm is handling a wide range of hospitality projects currently, and across all of these projects, it is applying its approach on continually learning and advancing to create one-of-a-kind designs. For the future, Bid Studio Architects aims to get its hand on more hospitality projects, and additionally, organize study trips that can enrich its experience further, and enroll in relevant courses that will help the firm thrive.
