Portfolio

Her Lips Said Nothing. The Room Said Everything.

Velvet, blush, and gem-toned hush - a love letter styled in silence.

Talk to the Hand

A glam handshake between gallery drama and lounge comfort - complete with a wink.

The Art of Gathering

Velvet silhouettes. Runway hues. Where dinner becomes a dressed-up affair - anchored by a Tom Dixon gold table from Twentieth Gallery. Statement dining with a side of sculptural glamour.

Tailored for Rest

An intimate expression of rest - where softness, symmetry, and curated detail create a space that feels deeply personal and quietly complete.

Minimal, But Make It Monumental.

A mood stitched in linen tones and graphic lines - where structure drapes softly and shadows frame.

Lounge, But Make It Iconic

Wrapped in drama, tailored in comfort - this Timothy Oulton piece isn't just furniture, it's attitude. A power silhouette made for the fashion of interiors.

Playfully Composed

Color theory meets cocktail hour. A cinematic clash of vintage flair and layered design.

Monastery at Dusk

Century-old oak, Blue Moon marble, and old-world stillness—reimagined in Timothy Oulton’s Monastery table.

The Warmth Between

Sculptural light, relaxed layers, and a note of rust bring depth to this restful retreat—warm, intimate, and beautifully composed.

Whispers in Stone

An architectural wine cellar designed for presence - where sculpted seating meets atmospheric light, and each pour is a curated ritual of intimate gatherings.

Pillow Talk in High Places

Vaulted Ceilings meet tailored couture - a tonal retreat where the room wears the robe and every corner whispers luxury. Serenity is styled, not slept on.

Tailored Taste

With sculpted symmetry and quiet strength, this kitchen balances modern elegance with everyday ritual - a masterclass in architectural intention.

Hollywood Hills Private Wellness Gym

Light traces the arches. Shadows stretch across the grain. A room composed for movement, a moment to reset, and space for the mind to wander.

The Day Falls Away

In the hush between warmth and light, the mind clears. A moment of stillness, entirely your own.

Resort State of Mind

An address dressed in sunlight, styled for staycations and private soirees.

Black Tie, Barefoot

As the sun slips toward the horizon, black-tie polish gives way to barefoot ease—sculptural stone, softly tailored linen, and the pool’s last light make lingering feel effortless.

Spanish Revival Sanctuary

Where every sun-drenched tile and shaded arch tells a tale of old Hollywood indulgence - reimagined and ready for its next chapter.

Fashioned to Ascend

A custom staircase as sculpture - elevating a boutique into a bold retail statement.

Palette

Where your world becomes the starting point.

Materials. Texture. A point of view.
A moodboard drawn from what moves you.

Details & scope

Palette is House of Malaya’s visual heartbeat—a collection of materials, landscapes, textures, fashion, and moments that reveal what moves you.

Through a conversation about what you love and how you live, we create a moodboard that brings your aesthetic into focus. Colors, finishes, furnishings, and unexpected pairings open possibilities you may never have imagined for your home.

Our artist’s eye connects the details, translating what you’re drawn to into a design direction you can see, feel, and begin to bring to life.

Included within the agreed scope of an Interior Design project, or available on its own as an inspiration vision board.

Includes up to three revision rounds. Each round covers one collected set of feedback within the original direction. Additional revisions are quoted before proceeding.

Project lists, shopping lists, sourcing, measured layouts, and construction drawings are quoted separately.

OUR STORY

Spaces that stir something in you beyond the ordinary.

This is Life As Art.

Established in 2007, House of Malaya brings together the poetry of spaces and the discipline of design.

Amber DePasquale takes time to understand how each client wants their home to feel. Her eye for scale brings each room into balance. She uses color with intention and chooses curated vintage pieces that add a sense of depth. Thoughtful layers give each space character. She pays close attention to every detail. She guides each project from the first conversation through the final details. The finished home feels deeply personal to the people who live there.

Maritess Villatuya pairs technical fluency with a discerning eye for composition. She translates ideas into visual concepts. She finds distinctive pieces that give each space its own story. Her intuition brings every detail into harmony with the larger vision. Her creative direction gives each project a clear point of view. She guides the visual story from first concept through final details. Her organizing work with OWI — Organized With Intention prepares the home as a blank canvas for the design that follows.

Together, they help clients live more fully than they imagined.
