HAMPHREY TEDJA
Principal of Operations, Domisilium Studio
As the scion of one of Jakarta’s real estate developers who was blessed with limitless creative flair, Hamphrey is a natural fit for the architecture and interior design industry. He has spearheaded and contributed to all types of project designs from residential – subdivisions, multi-unit and single family – to commercial – high-rise offices and shops – to hospitality – restaurants, hotels, and bars – throughout his career of over a decade, which has spanned across the world from the United States to Southeast Asia.
Hamphrey is the rare professional who has the technical abilities and training of an architect, but who is also fully capable of executing the design of a project down to the last throw pillow without making the space look or feel sterile, cold or overly architectural. He also has the uncanny ability of a bloodhound to find a way to obtain or manufacture any parts or pieces that may needed to make a design concept truly sparkle. He is not only a creative talent, however, but a tirelessly patient project manager who has a knack for creating synergy within a project team of even the most diverse and conflicting personalities, and the tenacity to follow through until every last detail on a project is taken care of properly.
Hamphrey grew up in Singapore before continuing his study at the world-renowned Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago where he earned a Professional Bachelors Degree in Architecture. He worked for a couple of local commercial and residential development firms as well as doing corporate interior and hospitality work in Chicago before returning home to co-found Domisilium Studio in Jakarta in 2009.
