Exceptional & Contemporary Residential Architect in Sydney
 

Michael has an innate desire to create significant Sydney residential architecture. He is a local architect in the North Shore who holds a wide skill set across technology, construction detailing and project planning.

​

His architectural interest lies in the realisation of great projects via a rigorously tested design process through sketches, modelling, and the array of technology available to today’s architects and that, ultimately the form of a building is only as good as it is detailed. He believes that the best Sydney residential architecture process is not a linear avenue to simply finish a project but an opportunity to question the site, challenge the opportunities and critically investigate the options to provide the best design outcome possible.

​

He has provided services as an architect in North Sydney, Mosman, Ku-ring-gai, Northern Beaches and many other Councils in Sydney. He aspires to have Shore Architects recognised as one of the top residential architects in Sydney by treating each client's project as a monumental occasion in their lives, and hence, providing the effort, energy and expertise that the process should involve.

 

Michael's desire is to make the client feel they are working with the best residential architect. He seeks to achieve this goal through effective communication, a detailed workflow and ultimately great architectural impact!
 

Brief history

​

Michael completed his Masters in Architecture from the University of Technology, Sydney and his graduating project was nominated for two awards external to the university (the AIA Award for Digital Innovation and the Object Gallery Award for Excellence and Innovation) and was announced the winner of both. Throughout his studies Michael also completed several semesters peer tutoring and later became a tutor for Architectural Communications at UTS teaching students an array of software and how to maximise the potential using these programs.​

​​

Following university, Michael was successful in securing an internship at Frank Gehry’s office in Los Angeles, California. After returning to Australia, Michael joined elite Sydney residential architects PTW Architects in Sydney's CBD. His scope of work would expand to all stages of building from a series of competitions, DA submissions, design development and construction documentation. Significant projects include 700 apartments at 88 Christie St in St Leonards, the construction documentation and site management at Harold Park Precinct 6B and the design development of Wanda One Sydney in Circular Quay. Throughout his studies, Michael also completed several semesters peer tutoring and, whilst working at PTW, became a tutor for Architectural Communications at UTS, teaching students an array of software and how to maximise the potential using these programs.​

​

Michael has turned his professional interest in realising clients' dreams and passions on a more personal scale; their own homes as a Sydney residential architect. Michael made the transition from Sydney's commercial architecture to Sydney's residential architecture and worked for some time at Northern Beaches architect Archisoul Architects. Michael worked throughout all stages of residential practice, including concept design through contract administration. Whilst he holds on to the skillsets from previous commercial experience, his passion lies in residential design (primarily single dwellings as a house architect in Sydney.
