About

Muza Lab, founded by Inge Moore and Nathan Hutchins in 2016, creates multi-faceted hotels, superyachts, luxury developments, and private residential projects. Their designs are tactile, interwoven with the tales of their surroundings; every dimension of a space is meticulously crafted to enchant and inspire.

The Muza Lab team allow their curiosity to wander the landscape, taking in the natural forms, legends, and legacies that weave the rich tapestry of a culture, ultimately bringing to life designs that are not only built to last—but to deliver truly memorable experiences. Inge and Nathan have their own individual strengths, but with a unified vision, they are not afraid to challenge the ordinary and listen to the dialogue and rhythm of their surroundings.

Their spaces are where people go to share special moments with those most precious to them. The aim is simple: to make these moments rich with feelings that can’t be shaken; to create settings for stories that are held close to the heart, and told again and again. Muza Lab projects have no preconceived ideas, and the design process from conception to completion is always a collaborative adventure.

Notable projects include: Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro; Peru’s Andean Explorer; Mandarin Oriental Residences, Barcelona; Eagle Island Lodge, Botswana; Finolhu Baa Atoll, Maldives; Kanuhura Resort, Maldives; Rocco Forte, Shanghai; plus numerous residences for private clients. Most recent works include a 1930s classic superyacht MY Marala, the One&Only Cape Town Hotel, Mandarin Oriental Residencies in Barcelona, and Private Residence in Cape Town.
