About

We Are Habitat Studio Architects

Habitat Studio Architects is a progressive design based boutique architectural practice committed to providing our clients with quality design and professional service.

Habitat Studio Architects is a multi-disciplinary practice established in 2010 out of an urge for creative freedom to maintain a high level of design on projects that connect with & consider the environment in which they are sited. Each of our designs are a reflection of the unique character of the site, to create a ‘sense of place’ that responds to climate and the local context. Environmental sustainability of our architecture is part of the process rather than an option. We incorporate sustainable principles and appropriate material selection in all our designs relevant to the brief.

The collaborative nature of the studio allows great flexibility with a large range of project scales including high end residential and beach houses, multi-residential townhouses and units, mixed use commercial, hospitality, industrial, fit-outs & interiors. Habitat Studio is an Australian Institute of Architects A+ Practice with project locations spreading down the Eastern Coastline from Cairns, Airlie Beach, Gold Coast, Northern NSW, Newcastle, Melbourne & Internationally to Singapore & Papua New Guinea.

Testimonials

Habitat Studio Architects went above and beyond designing our full internal renovation. The whole process was smooth and we loved it when the visual renders were sent through so we could envision what our home was going to look like. The visuals help the whole process and make it exciting.

Katie

Wave Developments have completed multiple projects with Habitat Studio Architects over the last few years.

We think that Wayne and his team's style, suits the Queensland way of living down to the ground. They put out great designs and are awesome to deal with during design and construction.

We highly recommend Habitat Studio Architects for architectural drawings and interiors.

Adam

The team at Habitat came recommended to us and instantly understood our vision, family life & hobbies, and took into account our land and life on the Gold Coast, all within the first draft of our rebuilt house…
We have been highly impressed with our architect, Wayne and the team. From the designs to advice and ability to think outside the box.
No hesitation in recommending Habitat if you are looking for a beautifully designed house with unique features.

Shelly

We cannot speak highly enough of Wayne and the team at Habitat Studio Architects. The service is a combination of consummate professionalism delivered with warmth and friendliness. We gave the team a brief to work off and what they delivered far exceeded our imagined dream home. Our experience with Habitat Studios has been exceptional and their service faultless.

From the first meeting I had with Wayne, we were on the same page. We talked about how I wanted the home to feel, more that how I wanted it to look; we discussed the non-negoatiables and the pipe-dreams. When the designs came through, he had delivered it all. I think we were all so surprised at the lack of changes I had - it really was a dream partnership.

My brief was that I wanted to bring the outside in; to see the lake and the gardens all through the house, but to still have private spaces to enjoy. My non-negotiables were a private courtyard, the master at the rear of the property, and for a view from the bathtub! And I got so much more than that. From the beauty of the staircase; to the detailed cabinetry with storage galore; to the white brickwork and the exposed beams in the living room. I even got my pipe-dream - a dog bath for my miniature schnauzer, Alby. I think this detail excited everyone! This design was all my dreams come true.

When Lauren, Habitat’s Architectural Graduate, joined the project, my experience only got better. Very quickly we found we very much shared the same vision for all the details.
As I was starting this project as a single woman with no building experience, Lauren was able to help me make lots of design decisions and I really trusted her advice. She was just as invested in making this my dream home as I was.

Wayne and Lauren were with me through the whole project, helping me with everything from selecting lights and tiles to decisions on landscape design when we neared the end. And they have given me the most beautiful home. I sit on the deck in the mornings looking out at the lake, or in the evenings on the bench seat in the master and I pinch myself; I now live in my forever home and it is spectacular.
