Studio Pandan is a Kuala Lumpur–based workplace design-and-build practice, led by a WELL Accredited Professional.
We partner with multinational organisations to tackle a critical yet often overlooked business challenge: the hidden costs of workplaces that work against their people.
Guided by the WELL Building Standard, we design and build interiors across all ten concepts — air, water, light, sound, thermal comfort, nourishment, movement, materials, mind, and community. Our aim is straightforward: to replace environmental stressors that sap health and performance with conditions proven to enhance both.
Every intervention is grounded in real-time environmental data. Every decision is measurable. Every outcome is verifiable.
What We Believe
The workplace is not just a backdrop to work — it is one of the most powerful instruments an organisation has. It influences how people feel, how they perform, and whether they choose to stay.
We believe every workplace decision should be:
- Grounded in evidence
- Guided by science
- Accountable to outcomes

Lois Yeap
Founder and Principal
"Listening to the workspace, caring for its people."
Lois is a CIDB-certified interior designer and the founder of Studio Pandan. Her journey into workplace strategy began not in a design studio, but inside the multinational corporations she supported, where she became a close observer of the human realities of corporate life.
She noticed that even in beautifully designed offices, people struggled with the everyday details: the glare on a laptop screen from a nearby window, the office that turned uncomfortably cold when it rained, the background hum that never quite disappeared.
These observations led to a simple but powerful belief: a workspace should be a sanctuary — a place that supports people rather than depleting them.
Lois’s approach is rooted in Evidence-Based Design (EBD) — the application of scientific research on how environments influence health. She does not believe in design for design’s sake. Instead, she prioritises the quiet essentials:
- Thermal comfort
- Acoustic balance
- Air quality strategies
- Lighting strategies
When these fundamentals are addressed well, they reduce the invisible stresses that drive burnout, disengagement, and high turnover.
By integrating ESG-informed principles, Lois helps companies meet their commitments to both their global community and their people. Through environmental data interpretation, she provides a clear, transparent picture of how a space is truly performing — making “healthy office” a lived experience, not just a line in a report.
For Lois, the greatest value she can offer any multinational company is a sense of stability. She understands that behind every turnover statistic is a person looking for a place where they feel well, supported, and valued. Her mission is to help organisations create that place — one thoughtful, data-backed detail at a time.
