Meet Chua Kim Huatt | Stelliers Asia 2025 Unsung Hero Finalist

Sep 1

For 14 years, Kenneth Chua has quietly shaped the guest experience at Capella Singapore — not through grand gestures, but through the fine details only a true craftsman can deliver.

As the hotel’s resident expert in painting, varnishing, and carpentry, Kenneth restores more than furniture — he preserves heritage. From seamlessly blending new floorboards into century-old architecture to repairing beloved pieces with invisible precision, his work is defined by care, skill, and pride.

He may work behind the scenes, but Kenneth is the reason so much of Capella’s beauty endures.
