Dr. William Lim

As Founder and Managing Director of CL3 Architects Ltd. (CL3), William Lim brings over 30 years of experience to his projects. An acclaimed architect and artist, William graduated from Cornell University and has spent the past three decades at the forefront of architecture, culture, and art. 

With a keen appreciation of humanities and art, William’s designs are distinctive and contemporary. “Architects have a social obligation to improve urban environments,” explains William. “Architecture is about people. I always feel that architects only do part of the job—the rest is shaped by the occupant using the space. We treat every project as a unique challenge and pay attention to every detail – from architecture to interior to furniture, — to create human-oriented and quality designs with artistic value.”. 

Since founding CL3 in 1992, William has established a notable presence on the global design scene. The studio’s diverse, award-winning portfolio includes architectural and interior projects for hotels, restaurants, retail, corporate, residences, and art installations. Marina Bay Sands Singapore, Raffles City Chongqing, Gaysorn II Bangkok, and H Queen’s Hong Kong are some of these award-winning projects.
