ABOUT US

Marco Van Ham & Nicholas Ling are the Founders and Directors of Zhuzh Asia.

​

An accumulation of over 20 years of design experience, in the Netherlands and then, in recent years, Malaysia & Australia, has given them a deep appreciation for design influenced by diverse environments. This journey across continents enables them to merge the modernist principles and sustainability-driven ethos of Australian architecture with the heritage-rooted craftsmanship and spatial dynamism of Malaysian design, shaping built environments that harmonize form, function, and identity.

 

With an innate creative flair and visionary spirit, Marco and Nicholas continue to push limitations where design is concerned, not confined to interiors but transcending boundaries of architecture, art, sculptural objects and branding. Their strong eye for immaculate details and rigorous passion for transformative spaces have carried the studio to new levels of design achievements.

​

Combined with unwavering passion and an intuitive approach to design, Marco & Nicholas pave the way for a revival of craftmanship and a bespoke curation of unique materials. This enthusiasm is expressed through their love for art and fashion providing them a deep-seated sense of materiality, form and texture. This constant seeking for new sources of inspiration is the catalyst for the studio’s growth, driving the creation of immersive experiences for the present and future.
