After finding a perfect block for our family beach house at Portsea we then had to decide on how we wanted the house to present. After finding ‘the look’ that we loved we were led to Mitsuori - Matt, Melissa and their team - to put it all together. The brief was for a ‘Wow factor’ house with simple lines, lots of glass, concrete and timber, plus a coastal feel and suitable for a multi-generational family. We believe we have achieved all this and more.

Through the design and then documentation process Matt listened, answered all our queries and then followed through with a minimum of fuss - even recommending our builder, Paul, with whom we worked happily through the whole project.

The build came in exactly on budget with only a couple of cost extras which were anticipated and costed early in the process.

We have achieved a fabulous, stylish family beach house and would be more than happy to use and recommend Matt, Melissa and the Mitsuori team to do it all again.

My wife and I took our time hunting down the right architect for our rebuild in Fitzroy. During that extensive investigation process Mitsuori was independently recommended to us by a large projects architectural firm. We reached out to Matthew and never looked back. We couldn't be happier.

The ease and transparency of our dealings with Matthew perfectly captured our design vision. For what on paper is a small inner-city footprint, entering our new house you have the feeling of a spacious modern living space that captures our brief of utilising historic recycled timbers, steel, concrete and glass, delivering abundant natural light. The design cleverly utilises every internal space to deliver the perfect forever home. Their engagement has been easy, enjoyable and highly reliable. In essence, we wouldn't use anyone else.

Our project was a residential renovation, extending a heritage Victorian weatherboard to maximise light and space. Mitsuori Architects were able to seamlessly blend our design vision, aesthetic and functional checklist into an immensely bright and liveable space, which was constructed swiftly without complication and within our budget requirements.

It was pleasure working directly with Matthew, who works completely transparently with his clients, is receptive and open to incorporating their ideas, shows a genuine willingness to listen and puts your mind at ease with his easy going approach.

He proved to be particularly nimble when expediting our documentation, so we could secure the builder of our choice. I will happily continue to recommend Matt and his team in the future.

We had an excellent experience with Mitsuori. We first started thinking about renovating our terrace in Fitzroy because of poor light and messy internal arrangements in the kitchen and living area at the back of the house. Matthew helped us to see possibilities we had not imagined. The work is now completed and we are delighted with the result. The space is not only well lit and functional but also beautiful
