In Singapore’s evolving luxury residential landscape, bespoke interiors are no longer defined by surface beauty alone. Today’s most compelling homes are shaped by precision, functionality, and an intuitive understanding of how people live.
At the forefront of this shift is Marquis HQO, a design-driven project arm specialising in custom-built kitchens and wardrobes that seamlessly balance Italian craftsmanship with contemporary lifestyles.
Founded in 2000 as the dedicated project division of Marquis Furniture Gallery and a subsidiary of HKEX-listed Design Capital Ltd, Marquis HQO has grown into a trusted partner for homeowners, architects, interior designers, and boutique developers. Under the purposeful leadership of Sharon Wu, the firm brings together over two decades of international experience, with projects spanning Tokyo, Hokkaido, Sydney, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Colombo, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Phuket, and the Maldives. This global exposure informs a refined approach to bespoke living, one grounded in quality, longevity, and thoughtful design.
At its core, Marquis HQO offers end-to-end interior solutions anchored by four key services: Custom kitchens and wardrobes, quality custom-build, product sourcing, and project management. As designers themselves, the team understands the technical and creative demands of complex residential projects. From early conceptualisation and detailed shop drawings to material consultation, production, and post-completion support, every stage is carefully orchestrated to ensure consistency and precision.

Custom-built kitchens and wardrobes form the heart of Marquis HQO’s expertise. Guided by a philosophy of creating timeless, human-centred environments, the firm works closely with clients and design partners to understand daily habits, spatial constraints, and long-term needs. The result is a fully tailored solution that feels intuitive, personal, and built to endure.
This philosophy is brought to life through close partnerships with leading Italian brands. With Valcucine, Marquis HQO emphasises ergonomic intelligence, sustainability, and innovative materials. Features such as the Ala lift-up door, New Logica back panels, height-adjustable units, and fully recyclable glass-and-aluminium structures elevate everyday kitchen rituals through ease of use and environmental responsibility.
Aster Cucine, meanwhile, offers expressive aesthetics and extensive customisation, from contemporary minimalism to warm, artisanal compositions, allowing kitchens and wardrobes to align seamlessly with a home’s broader design language. Complementing these is MisuraEmme’s architectural wardrobe systems, which transform storage into refined lifestyle spaces.
Balancing functionality, aesthetics, and craftsmanship is central to every project. Workflow planning, appliance integration, storage efficiency, and maintenance are meticulously considered, particularly in compact urban layouts. A rich palette of finishes, from glass and metal to stone, veneers, and handcrafted textures, allows for cohesive, visually calm interiors. Italian manufacturing heritage ensures precision engineering and durability, with components designed to perform reliably in Singapore’s tropical climate.

Collaboration defines Marquis HQO’s working process. Positioning itself as a design partner rather than a supplier, the firm engages early with architects and interior designers through workshops, material mock-ups, and comprehensive technical documentation. Projects progress through a structured workflow, from discovery and design development to precision production in Italy, certified installation, rigorous quality checks, and long-term after-sales support, ensuring a seamless and personalised experience from start to finish.
Looking ahead, Marquis HQO is attuned to emerging lifestyle trends shaping luxury homes in Singapore, including sustainable luxury, integrated living, smart functionality, calm minimalism, and walk-in wardrobes as personal sanctuaries. By deepening Italian brand partnerships, investing in technical expertise, enhancing showroom experiences, and adopting advanced visualisation tools, the firm continues to refine its approach to bespoke living.
