THE STORY OF SOUQ DESIGN

SOUQ Design evolved as a natural extension of SOUQ Store – a high-end lifestyle emporium and café in Bali, Indonesia, that is as much a sensory experience as it is a retail space.

Opened in 2014, SOUQ Store brims with beautifully-curated pieces from clothing and jewellery to objets and furniture, representing unique international brands and SOUQ’s own designs. Occupying a large space in Seminyak with raw concrete floors, cement rendered walls and oxidised brass accents, the retail store and cafe was the first interior design project of SOUQ Design. In the years since then, SOUQ has become synonymous with a refined aesthetic and commitment to originality and integrity in design.

Having pioneered a high-end retail experience in Bali, SOUQ was asked to work on local residential projects, conceiving interior design concepts and creating furniture, artwork and homewares for these spaces. SOUQ’s original furniture attracted the attention of international developers and brand creators which has given rise to our specialty of custom-designing and making furniture and homewares for bars, restaurants, hotels and villas across the world.

Peter and Sophie

Peter Kemp is SOUQ’s Head Designer.

Hailing from Melbourne, Peter has a multidisciplinary design background spanning Australasia over 40 years. Having studied fashion design at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology and Architectural Drawing at the University of Technology Sydney, Peter has worked in fashion, interior, architectural and product design in Australia, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Shanghai and Indonesia.

After working as an architectural and interior designer specialising in bars and restaurants in Sydney, Peter then created the Grand Pacific Blueroom, the luminous establishment on Sydney’s bar scene.

The magnetism of Asia drew him back and he moved to Shanghai where he conceived and created the brand and interior design for a boutique hotel and co-founded the iconic utilitarian cashmere label, KID, with Sophie.

He moved to Bali in 2011 for the beginnings of SOUQ Store and SOUQ Design.

Sophie is SOUQ’s General Manager and Creative Director.

Sophie began her career as a commercial lawyer in Perth, Western Australia.

During her time in Shanghai co-running and creating for KID cashmere, she developed an extensive creative-sourcing network for homewares and interiors which became the backbone for SOUQ Store in Bali.

Sophie is the creative energy behind the SOUQ Organic Café within SOUQ Store and specializes in sourcing, textiles and art direction for SOUQ Design.
