Collaborative approach to design
BRANCH Studio Architects are an award-winning design-intensive architecture and design practice based in Melbourne.
The company specialises in architecture, interior architecture and design, master planning, landscape architecture and custom furniture.
With a personal and collaborative approach with clients, Branch Studio Architects uses client involvement as an enriching and positive contribution to every project.
As a design focused practice, Branch Studio Architects does not do ‘cookie cutter’ buildings.
The company values architecture that is enriching and has meaning and substance linking each project to site, context, culture of place and inhabitants.
As each project is unique and budget is no excuse for bad design, Branch Studio Architects strives for the opportunity to bring an individual touch, regardless of project size or how small or large the budget is.
The company has a proven track record of commitment to each project and provides excellent construction documentation packages to minimise variations on each project.
Branch Studio Architects is proud of its projects; particularly the design of the Pamela Coyne Library that tripled the amount of books borrowed upon opening, as well as the extensive Masterplan project for Caroline Chisholm College.
The process of simultaneously working between scales at a master planning and individual project basis has allowed the company to give each project its own merit and value within a story of a collective whole – turning a tired and un-inspired educational precinct in to a contemporary, tertiary-inspired learning environment of the future.
Branch Studio Architects is a multi-faceted design practice that promotes collaboration with clients, consultants and contractors on every project.
