Inspired Melbourne Architecture + Interior Design Practice
Kirsten Johnstone Architecture is an award-winning Melbourne-based architecture practice with a focus on connecting people with space, context and one another. With a holistic approach to design, we are sustainability-conscious; crafting thoughtful and bespoke space that blur the traditional line between architecture and interior. Each design is unique, as is each client; we value effective communication from the very beginning of the process to ensure a deep understanding of our client's brief and vision for their space. Paying particular attention to detail, we design custom homes for tailored lifestyles and enhanced living opportunities. Director Kirsten Johnstone brings a refreshing passion, transparency and integrity to all of our services. If you would like to share your plans or visions with us, we'd love to hear from you.
