Furniture, built by hand —
and the people who’ve done it since 1999.
Bespoke kitchens, wardrobes, and full-home joinery, designed and installed by the same house that built Singapore’s most storied interiors.
A premium bespoke carpentry house, serving Singapore & Malaysia.
Arimokko is a premium bespoke carpentry and cabinetry company. Founded as Urban Deco in 1999 by Don Lim, we design, fabricate, and install custom kitchens, walk-in wardrobes, TV feature walls, library shelving, and full-home joinery for homes that deserve more than off-the-shelf furniture.
Three decades of craft, one philosophy.
Twenty-seven years ago, Don Lim founded Urban Deco in Singapore to bring craft-led interior carpentry to homeowners across the city-state. Through three decades of evolution, expansion into commercial design and sustained reinvestment in manufacturing technology, the business has become what is today known as Arimokko (Mokko Sdn Bhd) — a vertically integrated carpentry house operating its own factory in Senai, Johor, and a design studio at Aperia Mall in Kallang, Singapore.
Most of our growth has come through return clients and the trust of interior designers who use us as their dedicated manufacturing partner. The name itself — Ari (蚁) means “ants” in Japanese, Mokko (木工) means “woodworking” — reflects our philosophy of working with natural materials with the same intricate precision as carpenter ants tunnel through wood.
Don Lim — a career in the standards.
Don Lim has spent his career advancing the craft and standards of the Singapore carpentry industry. He currently serves on the Executive Committee of both the Specialists Trade Alliance of Singapore (STAS) and the Singapore Furniture Industries Council (SFIC), contributing directly to the certification frameworks the industry now builds to.
Don remains personally involved in client consultations and quality control at the Senai factory. Every Bespoke Suite project — and every full-home commission — passes through his desk before fabrication begins.

The Senai Factory & Singapore Studio.
Our manufacturing facility in Senai, Johor (100 Jalan Sinergi 6, Taman Perindustrian Sinergi) runs Felder and Biesse CNC machines linked directly to our 3D design software. Every cabinet is cut to ±0.1mm tolerance, edge-banded on the same automated line, and quality-checked by our QC team before delivery.
Our Singapore design office is at 12 Kallang Avenue, #03-07 Aperia Mall (Singapore 339511). This is where consultations happen — we meet you, sketch your space, and walk through finishes, hardware, and pricing in person. A separate carpentry workshop at 7 Mandai Link supports our Singapore-based installation and service teams.
Six specialists, one standard.
Arimokko comprises six specialist brands, each answering a different room or buyer brief — but every one built to the same standard and in the same factory.
Full kitchen design and build for Singapore homes.
Bedroom and walk-in wardrobe systems engineered for thirty-year wear.
Premium living-hall feature joinery, TV walls, library walls.
Modular storage solutions for tighter scopes and budgets.
Designer collaboration line, limited capsules with Singapore interior designers.
Turnkey design plus carpentry, end-to-end.
We build it the way we’d build it for our own homes.
We build cabinetry engineered for thirty years of daily use, finished with E1-rated low-formaldehyde melamine, fitted with genuine Blum hardware made in Austria, and installed by our own craftsmen, not subcontractors.
This is the same vertically integrated model used by Plain English in the UK or deVOL in Loughborough — rare in Singapore, but we believe it’s the only model that produces consistent quality at scale.
Mokko Factory — B2B carpentry for designers & contractors.
The same CNC lines that cut our bespoke kitchens are available as a service to interior designers and contractors across Singapore and Malaysia. Panel K certified board, cut and edge-banded to your CAD files, delivered assembly-ready.
By appointment, so you have our full attention.
