SWG Studio, is a multi-disciplinary design focused studio of the partners Santoso Budiman and Greg Royce in Melbourne. The studio was founded in the late 2009 to form a committed team with the passion and desire to be a studio that offers dynamic professional services in architecture, interior and design. This ranges from private residential, which is predominantly associated with heritage overlay as well as new build to multi-residential development and commercial projects, this includes hospitality, retail and office interior projects.
As the design principal for SWG Studio and trained as an architect, Santoso is involved in every project from the start to the final stage. Using his attention to detail while working on each project, he finds a unique set of conditions that can be enhanced, embodied and extended through a process of design that achieves the best possible outcome.
Before partnering SWG Studio, while in the workplace at Lovell Chen Architects and Heritage Consultants, Santoso was heavily involved in a wide range of projects that included private residential, institutional and commercial projects.
The rear part of the Brunswick house is now connected to the new garage through the existing rear courtyard. We also created an outdoor-indoor living area with an engineered timber looking deck for entertaining.
