ABOUT US
Based in the heart of North Fremantle/Walyalup, MCA operates as a tight-knit architecture studio with four dedicated staff members alongside our director, Matthew Crawford. We collaborate closely with a select group of specialist partners, functioning more like a tight-knit family than a traditional office environment.
Our studio’s compact size allows Matthew to personally oversee each project, ensuring direct client engagement and maintaining design integrity from start to finish.
We take pride in our ability to uphold our design principles across a diverse range of projects, including heritage restorations, residential homes, commercial spaces, educational facilities, and bespoke interior designs.
At MCA, we’re not just architects; we’re passionate storytellers, crafting unique and poetic buildings and interiors that resonate with our clients’ visions and aspirations.
MCA acknowledges the Whadjuk people of the Noongar nation as Traditional Owners of the land on which we live and work.
We acknowledge and respect their enduring culture, their contribution to the life of this city, and Elders past, present and emerging.
