about  T U C K A A

Founded by registered architect Ar. Leong Yean Tuck, TUCKAA is a Kuala Lumpur-based architecture and interior design studio focused on bungalows, private residences and selected spaces.

​

Tuck graduated from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, where his postgraduate studies examined how people experience and move through space. His design philosophy is also influenced by Buddhist teachings—particularly mindfulness, impermanence and the relationship between all things.

​

For TUCKAA, this way of thinking begins with close attention to how light changes throughout the day, how materials age, and how architecture flows naturally into the interior. Each home is shaped around the client’s routines, character and way of living, allowing a personal identity to emerge naturally through the architecture and interior.

​

The result is architecture that does not rely on a fixed style or make unnecessary gestures. It is thoughtful, grounded and made to be lived in.
