Hospitality Interiors & Private Residences

Mélanie Murata creates highly considered interiors for private residences, luxury hospitality, and exceptional properties where architecture, art, culture, and personal identity converge.

Her approach is deeply personal and deliberately discreet. Each environment is conceived as an expression of its owner, its setting, and the life that will unfold within it,balancing architectural clarity with material richness, contemporary sophistication with cultural memory, and impeccable detailing with a sense of ease.

Selected Projects

For UHNW private clients, developers, hospitality brands, and visionary principals, Mélanie brings together design direction, interior architecture, art curation, collectible design, cultural strategy, and bespoke craftsmanship to create environments with lasting emotional and cultural value.
