Our Heritage
Jaya Ibrahim, born to a Sumatran diplomat and a Javanese princess, went on to become one of the most celebrated designers of the hospitality world.
A protégé of British actress-turned-designer Anouska Hempel, his works are characterized by a trademark color-coded symmetrical design. Often described as calming and tranquil, amongst his most celebrated works are the interiors of the Aman Summer Palace, Capella Singapore, Four Seasons Nam Hai in Vietnam, The Aman Spa at Connaught London, The Chedi in Milano and Muscat, The Legian in Bali and The Setai in Miami.
Over the past 20 years, his work has been recognized internationally through numerous awards including “100 Best Designers in the World” by Architectural Digest. The JAYA brand has become synonymous with craftsmanship, contemporary design, cultural richness, and luxury.
Rooted in a distinguished global portfolio of masterpieces across the world – today, JAYA continues to build on its heritage, evolving towards a new era of home and hospitality through hotels and residences, furniture, and objects.
