INTERIOR architect Amy Liang is one of Malaysiaâs most sought-after designers for her skill at creating amazing and attractive concepts for trendy cafés.
She has won many hearts with her distinctive style, as is her ability to craft an ambience with a difference.
Liangâs projects include contemporary cafés. She creates a comfortable atmosphere and adds her signature green elements: plants or a small garden space are a âmust-haveâ in most of her café designs.
She also adds her personal touch by creating bespoke furniture pieces that are customised accordingly to fit the interior design.
Amy, who founded CocoKacang Design Studio, recently completed designing two cafés in Kuala Lumpur â Three Years Old (TYO) in Jalan Sin Chew Kee and V88 Bar and café in Desa Park City â all done despite the Covid-19 pandemic.
At TYO, she converted an old house into a unique new café. The white walls and natural lighting in the minimalist-style house was optimised to create a calm and welcoming atmosphere.
Wooden beams and high ceilings gave it a spacious feel, while vintage windows rendered a unique feature. The outdoor space was, of course, designed with tall trees.
At V88 café and Bar, Amy custom-designed elegant and functional âflip-ableâ tables at the outdoor space, to suit the caféâs function during the day and âflippedâ for use during bar hours at night.
