WATG is the world’s preeminent destination and hospitality design firm. We are employee-owned, 77 years young and home to nearly 400 creative, globe-trotting professionals located remotely and in our offices in California, New York, Honolulu, London, Singapore, and Shanghai.

We are known for our ‘people and planet first’ approach to design, applying a hospitality ethos to developments of all shapes and sizes. From initial feasibility studies to finishing touches, we operate globally as an integrated, multidisciplinary practice. Along with our interior design studio, Wimberly Interiors, we specialize in hospitality, gaming + entertainment, urban + mixed-use, and high-end residential design.

We were founded in Honolulu in 1945 and the spirit of the islands taught us to focus on community strength, self-reliance, and sustainability – which we still prioritize today.
