Antoniades Architects is a design lead and contextually focused multi disciplinary practice with experience in architecture, interior design, urban design, master planning, and strategic services.
Our Approach
We have always been guided by a belief that the quality of our surroundings has a direct influence on the quality of our lives – the practice of architecture is inseparable from the social and economic values of individuals who practice it and the society which sustains it. Architecture is generated by individuals needs – physical and spiritual – and a concern for the geographical context, culture and climate of place.
At Antoniades Architects we believe that the best architecture comes from a synthesis of all the elements that separately comprise and influence the character of a building – its structure, services, ecology, the quality of natural light, as well as form and the way one relates to the exterior and interior of the building. Intrinsic to this holistic approach we develop strong personal relationships with our clients and respect the precious resources of cost and time. Recent decades have witnessed key shifts in public attitude to the environment and issues of sustainability and energy consumption. We have always proactively responded to these concerns, developing design solutions that incorporate fundamental principles of energy efficiency, careful natural resource utilisation, user health and social responsibility. Environmental awareness and ESD is an integral part of the practice’s culture, a culture that is evolving to meet the challenges of the future.
Our Experience
We pride ourselves in providing a holistic design service with the capability and experience to deliver highly considered purpose built work with distinction. We strive for excellence in design and have put in place quality control procedures to ensure a high quality delivery and outcome. We understand that excellence is underpinned through the strength of our team together with our enduring relationships with our clients and collaborators.
Our team is diverse, bringing together individuals of distinctive skills and expertise, yet are united under a common culture and vision. Our projects are carefully and appropriately resourced to ensure our work is delivered to the highest standards and to those expected of us.
Architecture
“We take great care in our work, and invest our full energy and emotion into what we do” Our work is always influenced and inspired through a cognitive process of studying both the built form and cultural context providing purposeful and deliberate architecture.
Antoniades Architects have a diverse portfolio of work with strong engagement across mixed use and housing sectors which include residential, built to rent, co-living, and later life developments. We have delivered over 1300 residential apartments, independent living units and villas, and 1600 student accomodation beds.
Urban Design
“We care about the places we design, and our responsibility to provide exceptional public domain interventions”
We focus on designing well integrated, inviting public domain spaces, with consideration of the interface between our design and the surrounding context. This has driven our growing awareness and expertise in public space, particularly the integration of publicly accessible, communal spaces into private developments.
Interior Design
We have completed interior design work across residential, commercial, student accomodation, seniors living developments, and function venues.
Our ethos is to design meaningful interiors that will elevate the liveability and connection to the spaces and places that people use and occupy. The designs have focus on dialogue and synthesis between the built form and the interior spaces, whilst attentive to the evolving and functional needs of people and organisations.
Master Planning
“To feel at home and take ownership of your village, your precinct, your suburb and your community is an innate response to the familiar and the aspirational ”
Antoniades Architects have through the various stages of our master planning work, set to deliver over 1000 homes by 2025. We have an intrinsic understanding of the drivers that connect and build communities, specifically in co-generational and seniors living developments.
Strategic Services
Antoniades Architects have experience and knowledge in navigating through the highly complex and rigorous development and planning process, which enables us early on to identify opportunities and mitigate planning risks.
Our proven reliability and service outcomes are underpinned through our enduring relationships with our partners and collaborators to provide guidance, insight and confidence through all stages of development.
