How did you come to start your own firm?
Inge Moore: We conceptualized Muza Lab in 2016 and launched toward
the end of that year with a handpicked team working out of a studio in
London's Notting Hill neighborhood. Nathan and I had worked closely
together for a number of years, so we knew we shared the wish to form a
company where we could get back to doing what we love: designing. We
already had a huge amount of respect for one another and confidence that
we would complement each other at the new company.
Big break?
Nathan Hutchins: It was more of a blessing in disguise. Very quickly,
we had what seemed like quite a challenge for a new business: several fast
turnaround and very different projects around the globe, all completing
Rio de Janeiro's vibrant heritage is celebrated in
Pérgula restaurant at the Belmond Copacabana Palace
within our first 12 months. Happily, they were finished on time, the press
was very interested, and awards came in. As well as credibility building in
the client world, these accolades were important in encouraging our young
team and spurring them on.
Tell us about your design process.
NH: We spark off one another and edit each other. We can be one another's
greatest fan and harshest critic. That's healthy for the quality of Muza's
work, and it means we are always learning from one another. I value how
Inge has a knack for looking at things differently and seeing solutions that
may be staring us in the face but nobody else has found yet. She has a talent
for simplifying what others find complex or confusing.
IM: Nathan is the only person whose judgment I absolutely trust when it
comes to visiting our projects, as well as my own, of course.
NH: We also share the practical recognition that there's the creative concept,
