Markos Design Workshop, RIBA Chartered Architects helps clients maximize rental income with sustainable rural home designs. The practice is also globally recognised for its expertise in advanced timber architecture and thoughtful, environmentally conscious designs delivered locally and internationally. We cherish direct, 1:1, tailored relationships with our clients. Clear communication is pivotal to our project approach, ensuring keen responsiveness to site and context and adherence to timelines and budgets that best fit our client's needs. The practice is highly regarded for its expertise in sustainable modern methods of construction (MMC) and design for manufacturing and assembly (DfMA). Additionally, it is widely recognised for its specialisation in advanced timber structures and commitment to sustainable practices. We believe that good design should be accessible to everyone. A key aspect of being a proficient architect is effectively working within the available materials and budgetary limitations. MDW adopts a unique, multidisciplinary approach to architecture rooted in our carpentry background. This gives us an understanding of the integration of materials and structures, enhancing our ability to determine 'what will work.' Our proficiency in this domain makes us a favoured choice among clients, leading engineering firms, and contractors. Our firm has secured over 20 grants in recent years and can assist clients in securing funding for their projects. Moreover, we have expertise as Architect Developers and own a portfolio of commercial properties. This equips us with a solid understanding of project costs and commercial limitations.
