Deca-Laurel 2023: Behind Alvinterior Concept’s 10 years of passion-driven design

by Aisha Capulong

Recently celebrating a decade in the industry, Alvinterior Concept has been propelled to success thanks to Alvin's vision as Creative Director. Driven by his unwavering passion for design, Alvin prioritizes quality over profit, knowing that his creations are more than just spaces — they are sanctuaries for his clients

Marking Alvinterior Concept’s ten years in the industry, almost to the very day, is the design studio’s DECA-LAUREL Award win with DOTY. Alvin, overflowing with love for his calling, is the Creative Director behind it all. He believes passion triumphs everything, even when timelines are short or in cases of doubt. Alvin works unwaveringly with a principle of prioritising quality over financial gain because at the end of the day, he is very well aware that his creations are homes and spaces at which his clients seek total repose within.

He places great emphasis on being fully equipped when speaking with clients, always confirming he has all the knowledge to share as he walks into meetings. Despite this, Alvin still finds himself wishing for more time with them. “The [design] process is intimate to a certain level,” he remarks. To ensure his every client feels valued, Alvin recognizes the need to make every step of the way open and communicable to all stakeholders involved. Seeing the smiles and satisfaction on his clients’ faces is a strong source of motivation for the Creative Director.

As Alvin imagines the next ten years down the line, he hopes to have Alvinterior Concept be an established design studio that is considered by every home buyer. By then, he aims to have his studio be one that is well-regarded for its exceptional design and the absolute best service in the industry, all while staying relevant and in the loop with all the latest trends of the time.
