Grace Soh has a knack for understanding the importance of details. “Small touches can make or break the project,” she says. “We focus on seemingly imperceptible details to transform a good design to one that is great.” She has a reputation of being meticulous among friends and peers by now – a quality she consistently displays daily in her role as Managing Director of David Grace Designs International (DGDI), the design firm she established in 2012 after being encouraged by family, friends and clients to start her own business.

Undertaking projects predominantly in the global hospitality industry, DGDI also takes on health care, government and commercial projects, and demonstrates an unfailing respect for certain characteristics that make each space unique. The team pays close attention to each project’s environment and local culture to develop bespoke interiors in harmony with their surroundings.
