ART & DESIGN After successful careers in banking and sourcing, Birgit Wahlhaeuser moved to Hong Kong in 2003 and found her true calling in interior design. She founded W Interior Concepts, where she plans calm and harmonious living and working concepts for homes and businesses. Despite finding her passion late in life, Wahlhaeuser has received a BA honors first class in interior design and built a large portfolio of design projects across the city, including Love Hair on Wellington Street. “Designing the space for Love Hair was one of the highlights of my career so far, I have a passion for bringing sustainability to my designs,” she says. The past 12 months have helped Wahlhaeuser reassess her priorities, take a step back and learn to let things go. “Always trust your instincts. Sometimes you need to let things go - even if it’s difficult - to make way for better things to come.”
