How You Live
Twelve Sarawak lifestyles decide which decisions matter most — lifestyle first, style second.
OpenDecision to done — without the drag.
It can look like a lot. It's really one engine with five moves — and every part of ELS exists to speed up exactly one of them. Not a menu to browse; a path that takes a Sarawak home from “I have an idea” to “it's built and it matches”, faster at every step.
DecideQuoteFinalizeScheduleDeliver
Move 01 · Decide
From overwhelmed to a shortlist.
Accelerates decision-making — The client narrows the field before anyone spends a design hour.
Kills endless scrolling with no way to choose
Move 02 · Quote
From “how much?” to a real number.
Accelerates quoting — Scope and budget are clear before a site visit, so the number is fast and honest.
Kills sticker shock and “it depends” quotes

A free two-minute read that routes the project and readies the brief.
OpenWhat Your Budget Builds
RM20k–200k split three ways — ALUMAX products, ELS design, trades — over five worked cases.
OpenConfigure Your Room
Mark the whole-room scope; produce a coordinated brief, never a self-serve total.
OpenServices & Fees
Three services with firm starting fees, so the paid line is never a mystery.
OpenMove 03 · Finalize
Every choice locked, on paper, buildable.
Accelerates finalizing design needs — Decisions become a specification a contractor can build to.
Kills pretty renders that can’t be built, and endless revisions

The room specified — layout, materials by moisture zone, M&E, the lot.

The render, kept — and proven.

Kills “it doesn’t look like the render”
Bukti
Before → render → drawing → built, side by side — the promise, kept.

The staged quality checklist every job signs off against — snags and all.
OpenProject Library
Delivered jobs, documented end to end — each frame and client note filling in as projects complete.

The same engine — pre-loaded for you.
What makes the engine premium, not just plentiful.
The primitive
The 3-Impact rule
Every choice shows its impact on use, cost and look — never just “better” or “dearer”.
The honesty
Scope-authority badges
Every decision names who supplies and prices it — ALUMAX, an appointed trade, or you.
The structure
One group, three views
Buy → ALUMAX · Learn → design.alumax · Plan → ELS. No site does another’s job.
The reach
Trilingual, Sarawak-built
Every key surface in English · 中文 · Bahasa Malaysia, written for Sarawak — not translated from KL.
