MGAO engage with the tradition of architecture, generating designs through the realities of construction
Drawing inspiration from existing conditions, site contexts, building typologies and common construction techniques, MGAO design projects which respond sensitively to their unique environments.
MGAO work closely with materiality, proportion, prospect and light, which enables the studio to respond creatively to any brief whilst promoting the importance of quality over quantity and timelessness over trend.
MGAO works collaboratively with their clients, using their unique architectural approach to flesh out and frame their client’s specific brief and ambitions, whether they are personal, social, environmental or material.
MGAO begin each project with an initial pre design process, which together with their client’s involvement, enables them to explore the hopes and aspirations of each individual project, establishing the complexities and opportunities of the specific site and then developing initial design responses addressing the requirements of the client’s brief.
