The studio · Lane Cove, Sydney

Your home.
Considered from every angle.

Architecture, interiors and engineering, developed together. We look after the whole home and the details you live with every day, from the first drawings to the materials under your hand.

01 · The way we think

Artistic thinking.
Technical resolve.

A home takes shape at different scales: the way rooms open to one another, the light across a wall, the feel of a surface under your hand. We give each of those decisions our attention.

Your brief is the starting point. The site, its surroundings and the way you live show us the possibilities worth pursuing. We bring ideas to the table, listen to your response and develop the design with you.

As the design develops, we resolve structure, materials and construction details alongside it. A generous opening, a slender edge or a floating stair needs both imagination and sound engineering. Solving both together is how the character of a design survives all the way to the finished home.

Our Lane Cove studio

In our Lane Cove studio we lay out drawings and material samples side by side, so you can compare texture, tone and detail before anything is ordered.

02 · Working together

Space for ideas.
Clarity in the decisions.

Creating a home should be enjoyable, and every choice should make sense to you. This is how we work with you.

01

An open conversation

Bring your ideas, questions and doubts. We explain our recommendations and listen to yours, so the design grows around what matters to you.

02

Decisions with context

Before you commit, we show what each choice means for space, appearance, budget and construction, with drawings and materials side by side.

03

Care through the detail

We coordinate design information with your project team. Where our appointment includes construction support, we help resolve queries and review changes as the work progresses.

The wider group

Part of N1 Group.
Focused on your design.

Being part of N1 Group brings construction and procurement experience into the design conversation, so we ask the practical questions early, from material availability to how a detail will be built.

Engage ARCADO for one discipline or the full design team. We agree our role at the start and work closely with your other consultants and your builder.

03 · The team

The people
behind the detail.

Thirteen architects, designers, engineers and project specialists, led by Milad Farrokhi, Head of Architecture, and Dr Amin Noushini, Head of Engineering.
