Guided by our philosophy, “Design with A Cause”, WY-TO Group combines research with a Planetary well-being approach in the design of cities, places, and spatial narratives for People.
The design practice was first founded in Singapore in 2010 and later co-founded in Paris in 2012. Our combined Asia and Europe reach has provided our clients in government services and private sectors to reap the systemic benefits of a global outlook and localised design thinking. We address present-day challenges coherently with our advocacy for climate sensitivity and regenerative design in the fields of Urban Planning and Place Design, as well as Architecture (FR). Outlining them are our Green Commitments derived from international benchmarks, adapted local policies, and the collective demonstrations of design outputs from our projects.
We view Experiential Design as a leading methodology in our evidence-based design process. Our focus broadens to enhance distinct identities and characters with our experience in developing scales of Culture Curation, Exhibition Design and Visual Communication.
Every project, from temporary interventions to long-term masterplans, is marked by our distinct human-centric strategy to enact holistic change and meaningful People-Planet continuities. We analyse community dynamics for our designs to reconcile and value-add as coexistence frameworks. Through Curation and Programming, we stimulate inclusive cultural interactions and accessible engagements in the built fabric.
We believe that only by grounding green objectives with strong community-driven perspectives can design solutions be made relevant and resilient in wider contexts.
