About

LEONG LEONG is an award winning New York-based design office. LEONG LEONG’s internationally recognized work is directed by brothers Dominic and Chris Leong. The two founded their firm with the belief that design gains relevance through a constant dialogue with other disciplines, cultures, thinkers and makers to offer thoughtful and innovative design solutions. Their concept-based approach to design is coupled with a deep interest in methods of production that challenge norms and reveal new territories. LEONG LEONG’s body of work includes the completion of projects in New York, Seoul, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, and Napa Valley, California. facebook
