Gregory Kovacs

Design Director, Benoy

Gregory brings a creative, multi-disciplinary approach to his projects, with over 20 years designing and delivering world-class destinations. He works across both architecture and interior design with Benoy’s Hong Kong, Singapore and Shenzhen studios.

Gregory’s approach marries commercial problem solving with innovative design thinking to create unique solutions for his projects. He believes in collaborative design, working closely with his clients, sketching and finding the most suitable strategies together. He brings integrated design solutions where architecture, interior design and landscaping are inseparable, designed together to create truly lasting successful destinations.

Gregory has been working on various re-purposing projects to create sustainable destinations by redeveloping unsuccessful buildings, turning these neglected parts of our cities into new centers for the local communities.

His diverse portfolio of large-scale mixed-use, commercial, cultural, heritage and masterplan projects include multi award-winning destinations such as Huafa City Hub in Wuhan, China; Lotte Mall in Hanoi, Vietnam; and Seazen Suzhou Wuyue Plaza in Suzhou, China. His current projects include Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore, an architecturally stunning and premium lifestyle waterfront destination; Taichung High Speed Rail Project, set to be Taiwan’s largest TOD retail and mixed-use development; and Cross Street in Singapore, repositioning a commercial tower and heritage buildings at the heart of the CBD.

Before joining Benoy at 2017 Gregory was based in London working at Heatherwick studio on projects across Asia, US, UK and the Middle-East.
