About
Michael Mckeon is an architecture and interiors studio based in Melbourne and Canberra. We specialise in bespoke residential design, creating beautifully crafted homes tailored to their unique site, lifestyle, and environment.
Our work begins with a respect and understanding of place where we take inspiration from existing conditions. This research is united with our client’s aspirations and a vigorous interrogation of light, proportions and materials. These principles will often be found guiding our projects and finish resonating in their built form.
Method
Our studio believes in the importance of collaboration and client engagement. Briefs are established early in each project and client participation is encouraged throughout the design process.
Our projects are regularly interrogated through various forms of media including drawing, 3d modeling, and material sampling. This journey resonates in our work as each project is unique and portrays a sensitivity to the brief, the location and its owners.
