Since launching in late 2025, Studio Ryecroft has expanded its portfolio across Asia-Pacific, with current work spanning resorts, destination bars, restaurants, heritage landmarks and live music venues.
Based in Singapore and operating globally, Studio Ryecroft works across cultures, markets and operating realities to develop hospitality concepts with clarity, character and staying power. Founded by Bobby Carey and Tom Hogan, the studio’s concept-to-culture approach is grounded in a simple idea: strong concepts only matter if they can be translated into service, systems and guest experiences that perform in the real world.
“The range of work in our portfolio reflects what we set out to build with Studio Ryecroft,” says Co-Founder Bobby Carey. “We care about strong concepts, but just as much about the systems, standards and guest experience that make them work once they are live.”
“This was never meant to be a business limited to one format,” adds Co-Founder Tom Hogan. “We want to work on ambitious hospitality projects full stop, whether that is a bar, a restaurant, or something more unexpected.”
A selection of recent and current Studio Ryecroft projects is below, with further opportunities in development across Asia-Pacific.
BAR KAP – HOUSE OF TAN YEOK NEE (Singapore)

Set to open in June, BAR KAP is the destination bar within the House of Tan Yeok Nee, the sole survivor of Singapore’s “Four Grand Mansions” and national monument in central Singapore by Gaia Lifestyle Group and Karim Family Foundation. Studio Ryecroft’s role has been to shape a bar that feels grounded in the house rather than imposed upon it, building a concept that respects the weight of the setting while giving it fresh relevance. From there, the team translated that thinking into a working programme, covering drinks architecture, menu structure, service rituals and the operational systems required to maintain quality under pressure.
FLAGSHIP BAR – SIAM PAN PACIFIC BANGKOK (Bangkok, Thailand)
For Pan Pacific Siam Bangkok, Studio Ryecroft is leading the development of the hotel’s flagship bar with the ambition of creating a venue that can hold its own within Bangkok’s wider bar landscape, rather than simply serve the building. Scheduled to open in 2027, the project spans concept definition, guest promise and commercial positioning, alongside a programme strategy built around the realities of operation: staffing, dayparts, procurement, speed of service and consistency.
KŌKULABO – KALEIDO LIFESTYLE BANGKOK (Bangkok, Thailand)
Kōkulabo – Dining Room
At Kōkulabo, an experimental izakaya concept in Bangkok, Studio Ryecroft recently refreshed the beverage programme to better align with the food, the pace of the room and the realities of nightly service. The result is a drinks offering that feels characterful without becoming overworked, shaped through a tighter list structure, a clearer balance between cocktails, highballs, beer and sake, and a non-alcoholic selection given the same level of care and relevance as the rest of the menu.
LULU’S LOUNGE – SJS GROUP (Singapore)
For the revival of Lulu’s Lounge, Studio Ryecroft is supporting the return of one of Singapore’s most recognisable nightlife names, helping shape a bar programme that can move with the venue from earlier evening cocktails into a faster, higher-energy late-night rhythm.
Lulu’s Lounge
Slated to open in the next several months, the scope spans drinks development, bar functionality, recruitment support and key opening guidance, with a focus on building a programme that feels distinctive, operationally sharp and properly suited to a venue where music, atmosphere and volume are as important as what is in the glass.
SKYCROFT KITCHEN – SIAM @ SIAM DESIGN HOTEL BANGKOK (Bangkok, Thailand)
Currently in development with an aim to open later this year, Skycroft Kitchen is being shaped as a functional lab space for Bangkok’s bar & restaurant community: part private events venue, part test kitchen and part working base for creative development. Studio Ryecroft’s role is centred on making that flexibility usable in practice, with a focus on equipment planning, workflow, training and standards that allow the space to support experimentation without losing structure or control.
STARS BAR – FOUR SEASONS HOTEL AT HANGZHOU CENTRE (Hangzhou, China)
Stars Bar – Four Seasons Hotel at Hangzhou Centre
At Stars Bar, Studio Ryecroft began with a full diagnostic of the existing concept and guest experience, with the aim of helping the venue return as a clearer, stronger destination within the city. The work focuses on translating concept into lived experience, from drinks and service to atmosphere and reputation, while giving the bar a sharper point of view beyond surface appeal. Rolling out in the first half of 2026, the goal is to evolve into a venue with greater clarity, consistency and identity, where guests feel a distinct sense of place from the moment they arrive.
CENTARA RESERVE KRABI – CENTARA HOTELS & RESORTS (Krabi, Thailand)
For Centara Reserve Krabi, Studio Ryecroft has been appointed as bar concept and beverage advisory partner for the resort’s two priority bar venues: the Specialty Bar and Wine Bar. The engagement spans concept direction, beverage strategy, menu architecture, operating tools, pre-opening support and post-opening review, helping each venue open with a clear point of view, distinct guest logic and the level of execution expected of a flagship luxury resort.
