Interior designer at Agile Bukit Bintang
Your Agile residence, beyond the standard finish.
On the first night, the kitchen is fitted and every room is cool, but above the sofa and the bed there is nothing yet. That is where we begin: lamps, curtains, then storage.
A paper lantern over the table, a lamp on the sideboard and a few small downlights: the layers of light we’d plan for an Agile living room, which is handed over with no fittings at all.

Agile Bukit Bintang floor plans, and what the handover left to you
Agile Bukit Bintang is a freehold development of three towers on Jalan Bukit Bintang, where nearly every home has one or two bedrooms and was handed over with its kitchen fitted.
Our interior design starts where the handover stopped: ceilings, lighting, curtains and storage.
On the day the keys change hands, an Agile home looks nearly finished. The kitchen cabinets, hob, hood, fridge and washer-dryer are in, and every room has its air-conditioning. Look up in the living room or a bedroom, though, and there is only the slab: no plaster ceiling, no light fitting and no curtain track. Most of the design in these homes happens in that gap.
The development sits on the Jalan Bukit Bintang and Jalan Delima edge of the Golden Triangle, about 500 m from Pavilion KL, and its strata name is Residensi Agile Delima. Agile and Tropicana launched it together in 2018 on 3.76 acres of freehold land, to a concept design by DP Architects of Singapore; Tropicana has since sold its share to Agile.
Three towers rise from a podium of shops around a landscaped valley, an eight-storey car park and a Level 10 deck with a 25 m lap pool, a gym and function rooms. Together they hold 1,501 homes, besides 66 duplex SOVO units and 14 shops.

Of the 1,501 homes, 688 are 1+1s, 736 have two bedrooms, 49 have three and 28 have one. Sizes run from 597 to 1,157 sq ft built-up, and no home in any tower is larger.

- 887–962 sq ftThe two-bedrooms, the most numerous type, with two bathrooms
- 1,157 sq ftTower B’s 49 three-bedrooms, where bedroom three has a bathroom and a door of its own
Nothing overhead yet, and no published ceiling height
The developer’s 2018 list gives each home porcelain tiles of 1 m by 1 m in the living area and kitchen, engineered timber in the bedrooms, marble skirting, a fitted kitchen with a ceramic hob, a video intercom, air-conditioning throughout and a wardrobe in the master bedroom. It was written before the towers were built, and where it differs, your sale agreement wins.
Left off that list: plaster ceilings and pelmets in the living rooms and bedrooms, every light fitting, the curtains, and a wardrobe for the second bedroom or the study. Agile hasn’t published a ceiling height either, so we measure before deciding whether to lower a ceiling at all, since a small room feels every centimetre it loses.
Often the answer is a ceiling only where it earns its place, hiding a curtain track or a run of wiring, with lamps, wall lights and one good pendant doing the rest.
Up on Level 60, an 80 m Sky Garden adds a function room, a sky deck and sky pavilions, and Level 10 has a function room of its own. With rooms like those for a larger gathering, your own can stay sized for everyday life.
Agile Bukit Bintang interior design for a home lived in, or let
At Agile Bukit Bintang, we first ask whether the home is yours to live in or to let, because many homes here are let and some by the night.
After that, a few practical decisions about cooking, hot water, the spare room and the handover settle most of the design.
If you’re readying it for tenants or guests
Dozens of short-stay listings run under the Agile Bukit Bintang and Agile Delima names, though the management’s rules on short stays aren’t published. A home let by the night wants fabrics that wash, surfaces that wipe clean and a locked cupboard for the owner’s things. A home you live in can be softer, with more of your own books and pictures, and if you mean to let it first and move in later, the plan covers both.
If you cook most evenings
On the Tower C two-bedroom plans, C2 and C3, the kitchen is a walled room between the front door and the second bathroom, with an opening and no door. A sliding glass panel across that opening keeps frying smells in without darkening it. In the 1+1s the kitchen is open to the dining area by the front door, so the hood and cabinet fronts become part of the living room. We haven’t seen the Tower A and Tower B two-bedroom plans, so yours is checked on the visit.
If you want hot water at the sink
The developer’s list gives centralised hot water to the showers only. A later agent listing mentions electric water heaters, so on the visit we run the kitchen tap and the basins to find out. If they run cold and you want them warm, a small heater is planned in before any cabinet is built around it.
For the 1+1’s study, or bedroom three in Tower B
The 1+1’s small room has a window but no wardrobe, so we settle its job first, since a desk, a guest bed and a child’s room each need different storage. In Tower B’s three-bedrooms, bedroom three has a bathroom of its own and a separate door off the entrance lobby, and the handover list gives the type a second set of kitchen cabinets, a second hob and a second wardrobe. That suits a parent or a grown child, and your sale plan confirms how yours is laid out.
If you like what you were handed
The porcelain, the timber, the cabinets and the appliances were all new at handover, and most of it deserves to stay. We change a cabinet front only where it jars, and put your spend into the ceilings that are needed, lamps, curtains, storage and furniture.
What interior design costs at Agile Bukit Bintang
At Agile Bukit Bintang, our design fee for a two-bedroom is estimated at RM16,180–19,745, or RM3,565 less if you keep the kitchen as handed over, and for a 1+1 at RM12,615–16,180. Like every Sundays in Bed fee, it is agreed in writing before we begin, and it moves only with the rooms you ask us to design.
- Each room we design
- RM3,565
- Living and dining
- RM5,485
What a designer’s fee comes to at Agile Bukit Bintang depends mostly on how much of the handover you keep. In a two-bedroom, keeping the kitchen as handed over takes one room off the fee; in a 1+1 the kitchen opens onto the dining area, so it is already part of the living and dining.
Pick your layout below, then switch on the rooms you’d like us to design. Drawings for the foyer and the utility yard cost nothing.
2 bedrooms and the kitchen: 3 rooms at RM3,565, plus the open-plan living and dining at RM5,485. The foyer and utility yard are designed free.
Within each level, the lower figure covers the essentials; the upper figure adds extras such as a feature wall, LED strips and a kitchen island.
What the two levels mean
Curated. Melamine or laminate carpentry, quartz or sintered stone tops, the existing ceiling kept or a new plaster ceiling. Furniture from Commune, Cellini, Fella Design, Dezign District, Poet Living, Big Brain, Gudang, Crown Livin and Dadswood.
Bespoke. Detailed joinery, sintered stone tops, a plaster ceiling with detailing. Furniture from Space Furniture, Tekni, BoConcept, King Living, Ambient Living, Stanzo, Forest Furniture, Roche Bobois, XTRA, Urban Edge, Molteni&C, Nostaloft, Flexform, Janine and Chesters Collection.
What our fee covers in an Agile home
Our total goes on paper before the first sketch, and you pay it in parts as each stage is reached. It takes no notice of the contractors’ bills, so choosing oak over laminate for the study desk changes the builder’s price and leaves ours alone.
With Curated renovation and furniture (Commune, Cellini and Poet Living are typical makers) plus our fee, an Agile two-bedroom comes to roughly RM143k–252k if its kitchen and air-conditioners are replaced. Keeping them brings that noticeably lower.
With so much handed over, the spend moves overhead and into the cupboards. Ceilings where needed, light fittings, curtains, the missing wardrobe and furniture take most of it, and Agile’s kitchen rarely does.
Switch off whatever room you’re content with. Both furniture ranges are our estimates until contractors quote on your drawings.
| Home | Our fee | Curated | Bespoke |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2-bed 887–962 sq ft | RM16,180–19,745 | RM127k–232k | RM270k–566k |
| 1+1 625–717 sq ft | RM12,615–16,180 | RM114k–211k | RM248k–523k |
| 3-bed 1,157 sq ft, Tower B | RM19,745–23,310 | RM146k–266k | RM305k–639k |
Each lower figure designs the rooms an Agile home usually needs: living and dining, every bedroom, the 1+1’s study, and in the two- and three-bedrooms the kitchen, which comes off if you keep it. Each upper figure adds a room, such as the main bathroom, or the bathroom that belongs to bedroom three in Tower B.
October 2026 estimates; a price comes only from contractors quoting on our drawings.
Where the Agile ranges come from
Each range assumes the kitchen cabinets, hob and hood, washer-dryer, air-conditioners and wardrobes all go in new. Agile handed over every one of them except the wardrobes beyond the master bedroom, so keeping them brings your figure down.
At Curated, the sofa, beds and table come from makers such as Commune, Cellini and Poet Living, and at Bespoke from the likes of Space Furniture, BoConcept and Molteni&C. Every row leaves the bathrooms as handed over and costs the 1+1’s small room as a study.
Furnishing to let?
If your Agile home is to be let, perhaps by the night, our Essential level may suit it better, with Ikea, SSF Home or Harvey Norman furniture, finishes that wipe clean, and a fit-out that goes in quickly and is easy to refresh between stays. Whichever level you choose, the design fee stays the same.

An Agile Bukit Bintang renovation, kept calm for your neighbours
At Agile Bukit Bintang, the same designer looks after your home from our first conversation to the final styling, and handles the management, the lift bookings and your corridor neighbours as the work goes on.
Contractors you choose do the building, and we put their quotes side by side with you first.
In towers of several hundred homes, many of them let and some by the night, a contractor’s trolleys share the lifts with tenants, guests and their suitcases. On the Tower B key plan we have seen, homes line one long corridor between two lift cores, so we agree delivery times with management and protect the corridor and the lift as well as your own floors.
Nothing is published for Agile Bukit Bintang about its management body, the renovation deposit, working hours or booking the lifts, so the management office gives us its current terms before a contractor is asked to price.
- A call about your tower and plan FreeWhich tower and plan, whether the home is for you, for tenants or for guests by the night, and what from the handover you’d keep.
- A visit to measure and test RM200, waived if you go ahead with usEach room measured to the slab, every light point marked, the kitchen tap and basins run to check for hot water, and the parts of the handover worth keeping listed.
- The scope on paper, then the designRooms, fee and spend are agreed in writing first. The lighting follows, then any ceiling that earns its place, joinery, curtains and furniture, and an early decision on what the study or bedroom three is for.
- Quotes you can compareAll the contractors price the same drawing set, which keeps their figures comparable. We take you through each quote, and the builder you appoint is your choice.
- In the tower, then the finishingLifts and deliveries are booked through management, the handover kitchen and floors are sheeted over, every stage is inspected against the drawings, and styling comes on the last days.
A home this new can still hold surprises, such as a light point in the wrong place or a socket where the wardrobe needs to stand. We look for them on the visit, before the drawings are final, so they cost a line on a plan rather than a day on site.
Management’s consent, and a permit if needed
Jalan Bukit Bintang is in Kuala Lumpur, so where the works need a permit it comes from DBKL, and your contractor applies once the building management has consented in writing. Its deposit, hours and lift rules aren’t public, so we ask the office for them first.
Where the work is mostly lamps, curtains and loose furniture, it may come down to booking a lift and the deliveries. If your keys came in 2023 or 2024, read the defect terms in your sale agreement too, and report anything the developer should put right before a contractor starts.
Interior design that makes one Agile Bukit Bintang home unlike the next
Agile Bukit Bintang’s kitchens, floors and fittings arrived alike in hundreds of homes, so yours will differ in what comes after.
We plan the light, the storage and the furniture around your days and around the things you bring with you.
An Agile 1+1 might be a first home in the city, a base for long weeks of work in Kuala Lumpur, or a flat being made ready for tenants. We ask when you cook, where you work, what you keep and who comes to stay, and plan the rooms around the answers.
What the handover gives you, and what to add
- KeepKitchen, tiles1 m porcelain in the living area and kitchen, timber in the bedrooms, and the cabinets, hob, hood, fridge and microwave

From the developer’s 2018 handover list, written before the towers were built. Your sale agreement governs, and we hold both up against your home when we visit.
What did renovations a little north of Agile cost?
No renovation at Agile Bukit Bintang has been published yet. The nearest published records come from towers about 1.5 km north, on the KLCC renovation cost index, and every one is another firm’s project. Their median, over 18 records, is RM158 per sq ft; on a 922 sq ft two-bedroom that would be about RM146,000, inside the Curated range above.
At the low end of the same set, two Star Residences homes came in at RM57–59 per sq ft. On the index’s own reading, the share of the developer’s handover you keep moves a total more than the tower does, which counts for a lot in homes handed over as fitted as these.
FAQ
Agile Bukit Bintang, from laundry to hot water
Agile handed over a kitchen and air-conditioning. What’s left to design?
At Agile Bukit Bintang, what’s left is mostly overhead and in the cupboards. On the developer’s list, the living room and bedrooms came without plaster ceilings or light fittings, the second bedroom or study without a wardrobe, and no room with curtains. Light, storage and furniture take most of the budget, and very little needs pulling out.
What does a two-bedroom here cost to renovate and furnish?
For a 922 sq ft Agile Bukit Bintang two-bedroom, expect roughly RM127k–232k of renovation and furniture at our Curated level (makers such as Commune, Cellini and Poet Living) and RM270k–566k at Bespoke (Space Furniture, BoConcept, Molteni&C), with our design fee on top. Both ranges assume a new kitchen and new air-conditioners, so keeping Agile’s brings yours down.
Is there a balcony for drying laundry at Agile Bukit Bintang?
Not in the Agile Bukit Bintang 1+1 plans we have seen: types A2 and B5 to B7 show an air-conditioner ledge and no balcony, and the developer’s handover list gives each home a 2-in-1 washer-dryer. If you like to air-dry as well, a rack that lowers from the ceiling or folds away behind a door can be planned in from the start.
Can the 1+1 study become a guest room?
Most Agile Bukit Bintang 1+1 studies can become a guest room, because each has a window; what it lacks is a wardrobe. A slim built-in one and a sofa bed make a guest room that still works as a study. It is counted in the 1+1 fee above, and leaving it as it is takes RM3,565 off.
Can Tower B’s three-bedroom work for a parent or a grown child?
Tower B’s three-bedroom at Agile Bukit Bintang is laid out for it: bedroom three has a bathroom of its own and a separate door off the entrance lobby, and the handover list gives the type two sets of kitchen cabinets, two hobs and two wardrobes. We would plan that corner as a small suite. Before letting it separately, check your sale agreement and the management’s rules, which aren’t published.
Is there hot water at the kitchen sink?
The kitchen sink at Agile Bukit Bintang may have no hot water: the developer’s list gives centralised hot water to the showers only and doesn’t mention the sink or basins, though a later agent listing mentions electric water heaters. We run the taps on the site visit, and if you want hot water there, an under-sink heater goes in before the cabinets are built.
What are the floor plans at Agile Bukit Bintang?
Agile Bukit Bintang’s homes run from 597 to 1,157 sq ft built-up, and no home in any tower is larger. The 688 1+1s and Tower A’s 28 one-bedrooms are 597–717 sq ft, the 736 two-bedrooms are 887–962 sq ft with two bathrooms, and Tower B’s 49 three-bedrooms are 1,157 sq ft, with a bathroom and a door of its own for bedroom three.
Who developed Agile Bukit Bintang, and when was it completed?
Agile and Tropicana launched Agile Bukit Bintang together in 2018, on 3.76 acres of freehold land, to a concept design by DP Architects of Singapore; Tropicana has since sold its share to Agile. Keys to Towers B and C were handed over in 2023–24, and no date has been given for Tower A.
Is Agile Bukit Bintang the same as Residensi Agile Delima?
Yes: Residensi Agile Delima is the strata name of Agile Bukit Bintang, which sits on the Jalan Bukit Bintang and Jalan Delima edge of the Golden Triangle. Dozens of short-stay listings run under both names.
What facilities does Agile Bukit Bintang have?
Agile Bukit Bintang has a Level 10 deck with a 25 m lap pool, a gym and function rooms, and an 80 m Sky Garden on Level 60 with a function room, a sky deck and sky pavilions. The three towers rise from a podium of shops around a landscaped valley.
What interior design services do you offer at Agile Bukit Bintang?
At Agile Bukit Bintang, we offer condo interior design for the 1+1s, the two-bedrooms and Tower B’s three-bedrooms, renovation design included, and we usually begin with the ceilings and lighting the handover left out. We draw the plans, compare contractors’ quotes with you and manage the works on site, and contractors do the building. For a home that needs furnishing rather than building, interior styling and our Procurement Concierge work on their own, and Virtual Design takes on homes beyond Kuala Lumpur and Selangor.
