Fabian Tan Architects

Since 2012, Fabian Tan Architect has worked from Kuala Lumpur, the city where its founder built his career after graduating with honours in architecture from the University of South Australia in 1997 and spending eleven years in established practices in Kuala Lumpur and Melbourne.

The studio works across residential, institutional, commercial and interior projects, with a body of houses that has been widely published and awarded across Asia and Europe. Tan describes his approach as one of evolution and flexibility: ideas are never imposed on a site, conventions are constantly reassessed, and light, material, volume and relationships are resolved as a whole, guided by restraint and refinement.
