- Uiga Fa'apitoa
- Situated in the heart of London, the karaoke entertainment venue is conceived as a sanctuary, offering visitors an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Rooted in traditional Chinese values yet expressed through a contemporary lens, the project embodies the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. Each room within the venue is meticulously crafted to encapsulate the essence of one of the five elements, providing visitors with a unique and immersive spatial experience that resonates with the wisdom of Chinese philosophy.

- Su'esu'ega
- This design research presents a London-based karaoke club design influenced by Wu Xing, the Chinese philosophy of five elements. Each room reflects an element, merging traditional and contemporary aesthetics. From the Earth-themed entryway to VIP spaces blending Water and Fire, the design harmonizes nature's essence with modern comfort. Guests experience a journey through elemental themes, providing a unique and immersive escape from urban life while celebrating the timeless wisdom of Chinese philosophy.
- Fa'aosofia
- The karaoke club interior design draws inspiration from the ancient Chinese philosophy of Wu Xing, or the "five elements," which symbolise fundamental phases in the perpetual evolution of the universe: fire, water, wood, metal, and earth. This philosophical framework serves as the foundation for the conceptual design, weaving the essence of each element into distinct themes and characteristics that reflect the inter-connectedness of nature and humanity.
- Umi o le Poloketi
- Project conceived in 2020-21, Partial completion in 2022 except Toilets parts. Expected to be completed in December 2024.
Location: Chinatown in London - Fa'agasologa o Galuega
- The journey of exploration begins as guests descend the entry staircase into the basement, where they are enveloped in the theme of Earth. This is represented by staggered layers of timber boards, creating an ambiance reminiscent of an underground cave. A lighting tunnel guides visitors to three private rooms. First smallest one is for the Metal room which features a stainless-steel triangulated umbrella centrepiece, dominating the intimate space. A China map coffee table adds an intriguing touch. Second room is a narrow linear room, representing the Wood theme, is adorned with layers of tree trunk patterns, evoking the sensation of singing amidst a forest and creating an illusion of room depth. The final and largest VIP room seamlessly blends the themes of Water and Fire, offering both tranquil serenity and the fiery passion of flames.
Finally, guests conclude their journey in the sanctuary room, with a mysterious cold-blue hue evoking the underwater world. Throughout the experience, guests are immersed in environments that authentically capture the essence of each elemental theme.
Overall, the karaoke club interior design serves as a testament to the timeless wisdom of Wu Xing, offering guests an opportunity to experience the beauty and harmony of the five elements in a modern and vibrant setting. - Sui o le 'Au
