About Studio H

Studio H is a design-led practice creating homes of quiet distinction. Our work is grounded in a deep respect for context, materiality, and the people who live within the spaces we design.

We believe good architecture starts with listening. Each project begins with a conversation: about the way you live now, and the way you want to live in the future. From this, we shape spaces that feel intuitive, enduring, and personal.

Our studio offers a full architectural service, with projects ranging from private residential renovations and new builds to large multi-residential developments of 100 dwellings or more. Every detail is considered, from spatial planning and joinery to material selections and environmental performance. With the aid of 3D modelling we ensure every element is clear and cohesive from the outset.

More than anything, we value the relationships we build with our clients, builders, and trusted consultants. These collaborations are the foundation of each project’s success and the reason our homes continue to bring joy long after the work is done.
