What We Do

[01]

Architecture

Every Lumaya house starts as a section drawing, not a mood board. Open plans, deep eaves, and a clean line between inside and out.

  • Concept Design
  • Spatial Planning
  • Material Selection
  • Structural Detailing
[02]

Interiors

Rooms should feel unforced. We balance raw texture with quiet finish so the light does most of the decorating.

  • Furniture Curation
  • Lighting Design
  • Styling & Finishes
  • Joinery
[03]

Landscape

The ground matters as much as the roof. Planted courtyards, water that cools the air, edges that dissolve into the site.

  • Tropical Planting
  • Pool & Water
  • Outdoor Rooms
  • Site Grading
[04]

Visualisation

See the house before it exists. Photoreal renders and walkthroughs so every decision is made with your eyes open.

  • 3D Renders
  • Virtual Walkthroughs
  • Material Boards
  • Sun Studies
[05]

Advisory

From finding the right plot to clearing permits and finance, we keep the paperwork behind you instead of in front of you.

  • Site Selection
  • Legal Advisory
  • Investment Planning
  • Project Oversight

What Our Homeowners Say

“Lumaya gave us a house we can work in, rest in, and actually stay in on a Sunday. Nothing about it feels borrowed.”

FAQ

Everything worth
asking first.

How long does a build usually take?

Every site is different, but most houses run 7 to 13 months from groundbreaking, depending on scope, access, and how the rainy season lands.

Can I be involved in the design process?
Do you handle permits and legal paperwork?
Is it possible to customise the layout or finishes?
Can you help with furnishing the house?
