    Ar. Melvin is a registered architect in Singapore and gradated with Masters in Architecture (NUS). Previously mentored by Ar. Rene Tan (President’s Design Award Laurette), he honed his design sensibilities and craft for a decade on a vast portfolio of luxury residential houses and developments before embarking on his own in 2019.
