A Dual Approach
At Maison Kawa, this dual expertise is expressed differently depending on your needs, but always with the same precision:
For Your Business
We connect your strategy to your premises. We ensure that the aesthetics of your offices aren't just "decorative" - they're tangible proof of your positioning. There's no longer a gap between what you say (your marketing) and what people see (your walls).
For Your Home
Here, it's the "Service" and "Psychology" dimension that takes centre stage. We understand your lifestyle to anticipate your needs - even those you don't express. We bring you that hospitality-grade fluidity that lightens daily life, managing every logistical detail on your behalf.
Your Trusted Partner
We are the bridge between strategic vision and technical execution. Working with Maison Kawa means choosing a partner who speaks your language - whether financial, marketing, or emotional - and who knows how to translate it into an exceptional space, with complete transparency.
From Dupin to Maison Kawa
After seven years at the family business Dupin 1820, Alix Muller Luthi founded her own interior architecture studio, Maison Kawa SA.
She brings the exacting standards, craftsmanship, and sensibility she acquired, combined with a more digital and contemporary vision.
Excellence as Heritage
For me, interior architecture cannot be improvised. It demands a dual mastery: creative artistry and constructive reality. That's why, after my studies at the Lausanne Hotel School, I chose to establish my credentials through three years of formal interior architecture training. I wanted to master the line, the volume, and the technique.
I then tested this academic training against the realities of the field during seven years leading the family business Dupin 1820, a benchmark Geneva institution. It was there, in daily contact with master craftsmen and complex projects, that I forged my foundations. I can design a project, but above all, I know how it's built, what it costs, and how to deliver it without compromise.
The Strategic Vision
My initial training at the Lausanne Hotel School gave me a rare skill in this creative profession: business vision and human analysis. It's a school of strategy and psychology. There, I learned to decode a business model or a complex personality to understand its deepest aspirations.
My role doesn't stop at aesthetics. My role is to create a seamless continuity between your message and your reality. I translate your abstract concepts - your values, your brand, your vision of life - into concrete architectural language.
