HELLO, I'M CAROLINE CHOU.

A U.S. EDUCATED ARCHITECT BASED IN HONG KONG.

OPENUU (“Open, you! You!”) is an international award-winning design studio with experience in architecture, interior, exhibition, branding, and product design. OPENUU established their presence in Hong Kong in 2012. The design duo engages clients to balance function and design, delivering uniquely urban spaces for all to enjoy. The husband and wife team is sough-after by clients to create multifunctional projects, and adapts to challenging interiors. The design team delivers unique design visions, and creates innovative spaces. Our clients include hotels, coliving spaces, restaurants, and retail.

Caroline Chou is the Design Director of award-winning interdisciplinary firm OPENUU. Originally born in Texas, Chou spent her early years shuttling between Taiwan and the U.S. — where she later went on to study architecture at the Rhode Island School of Design. Along with husband (and OPENUU founder) Kevin Lim, Chou has become something of a marquee name on the burgeoning Hong Kong design/architecture scene. Since Chou and Lim moved their business to Hong Kong in 2012, OPENUU has been awarded ‘Best of Year’ firm by Interior Design Magazine four times; and bagged the prestigious Will Ching Design Prize in April 2019 — awarded for ‘original and excellent’ design by small companies with up to five employees.
