eco-id is an architecture and interior design practice founded in Singapore in 1996, with studios in Singapore, Bangkok, Shanghai and Skopje, and projects across Asia, the Indian Ocean and Africa.
The name joins two ideas. Eco means reading a site's context closely. Id means giving each project its own identity, drawn from its climate, location and landform.
About the studio →
A private island resort designed as a castaway hideaway, pairing modern simplicity with rustic materials.
Every structure on the island is bamboo, prefabricated in Java and shipped over, so each tented villa went up in about a week.
Overwater and beach villas around the lagoon of Maamunagau Island, with pool decks that face the sunset.
A glass residential tower off Orchard Road, with 58 homes stacked over 36 storeys.
A family home of stone-clad volumes set around gardens and a pool.
One team takes a project from the site plan to the last piece of furniture, for resorts, hotels, residential towers and private homes.
Plans for resorts, islands and large sites that place buildings, landscape and arrival routes before the architecture begins.
