Michael McManus Architects

Michael McManus Architects work across Victoria from their studio in North Melbourne. In 2020 they pledged to take the practice carbon neutral, a commitment that shapes how they think about the built environment.

The website answers with an unexpected, earthy palette, a deliberate counterpoint to the polish of the architecture. Every hue is drawn from their projects: deep green for landscape, yellow for sunlight, grey as breathing space, and burnt orange for brick.
