YWS Design & Architecture

Creativity, Collaboration, Certainty

Leisure design is what YWS Design & Architecture does. It’s all it does. YWS has deep expertise in hospitality, gaming, retail, dining and entertainment environments—in other words, places for people who love leisure and seek memorable experiences wherever they go. For some, it’s a lifestyle. For others, it’s a splurge. They all want something special. Unforgettable.

YWS has taken the time to understand what inspires people to choose a resort, what compels them to stay there and what motivates them to spend their time and money as they create cherished memories.

Fifteen years ago, YWS was founded in the birthplace of the integrated resort, Las Vegas. The founding partners and executives are pioneers in the industry, having been responsible for resort giants like Bellagio and Mirage. YWS couldn’t be more proud of the contributions it has made to the evolution of its hometown and the industry it calls its own.

With offices in Las Vegas and Singapore, YWS is strategically located in the heart of the world’s leisure and entertainment markets.

YWS has shared its passion for leisure design and its firm history, but it knows it’s all just talk unless it delivers. YWS shares that vital piece of the equation in the form of its three C’s:

Creativity: YWS’ international team of designers ensures that the environments they create are unique, memorable and grounded in consumer insights. They go beyond remarkable aesthetics by emphasizing operational efficiency and commercial effectiveness.

Collaboration: As leisure design experts, YWS knows a lot about creating integrated resorts. YWS can design casino floors with optimal flow… craft a beautifully integrated podium… conceive a layout that creates energy and an enduring vibe. What the firm needs is a client’s vision. It’s the firm’s job to align its expertise with that vision. YWS is committed to building a collaborative relationship with clients to make success happen.

Certainty: This is where art takes a back seat to science. YWS is very serious about the way projects are delivered. It’s no secret that projects run on money, time and resources, each of which must be monitored and balanced to deliver a project on schedule, on budget and to the promised design. YWS has made project execution a scientific process. The only looks of surprise should be delighted ones—at the grand opening.
