About - LLoyd Hassencahl

LLoyd Hassencahl
Director and Co-Owner, Design Solutions PTPMA

LLoyd Hassencahl is the Director and Co-Owner of Design Solutions PTPMA. LLoyd established the company in 2007, with Business Partner and Co-Owner, Rani Trevelyan. Design Solutions is the go-to resource for Architecture Design, Interior Design, and Landscape Design in Bali and the Region. The company specializes in high-end residential design, destination restaurant design, and boutique hospitality design. All Design Solutions projects are bespoke and tailored to the specific needs and vision of our international Clients.

LLoyd is a summa-cum-laude graduate of The Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in Los Angeles, California where he received three Merit Scholarships during his studies. LLoyd’s educational focus included Textile Technology, Interior Design, Fashion Design, and Interior Architecture. His early career included becoming the Fashion Director of Saks Fifth Avenue, Beverly Hills (at the youthful age of 26). Opportunities in Product Development and as a Design Director for international iconic luxury brands followed. Throughout his career, LLoyd has gained a well-rounded expertise and understanding of the design, merchandising, and marketing of luxury products and establishments.

LLoyd launched his own company, Design Solutions, in 2007 following 8-years with John Hardy Jewelry as the Director of Product Development. Design Solutions’ beginnings were rather humble, with a crowded home office and a hand-picked Design Team in which LLoyd intuitively saw great potential. Design Solutions has become the go-to full service Design Firm for owners of high-end villas, destination restaurants, and boutique resorts in Bali and the region.

Based on the enthusiastic interest of our Clients, LLoyd and his Team have launched Kamala Home, a division of Design Solutions PTPMA, that produces designer-level softgoods for the local and international markets.
