FMD Architects is an architectural practice with extensive experience in architecture of varying scales, types and budgets.
The core work of the practice is boutique commercial, hospitality and residential work. The focus on specific projects enables a high level of client service as well as an intense design process with rigorous detail.
A particularity of the practice is its extensive research into materials and product development, which equips it with a knowledge to develop rich and inventive architecture.
The personal and collective histories of our clients enrich our ideas on every project. Our methodology allows us to research thoroughly the particularity of any design brief without falling back upon generic response.
We add value through an insightful creative process to produce a unique response to each project.

Fiona merges the two disciplines of interior design and architecture. Her experience is diverse, with a range of projects including residential, major retail and institutional projects over the last 20 years. The detailed nature of her work, coupled with her extensive research into materials and product development is reflected in the rich interiors and architecture produced.
The site is a small 300m2 suburban block in south east Melbourne. The brief was to design a new dwelling to accommodate a family of 4 while also including flexible spaces which can change as the children grow and the needs change.
