Season 7 Episode 3 :The Business of Architectural Design with Studio Atelier.

We land this week with a bit of tale of small business success, and by that I mean, that this Design Banter interview with Kim & Jeff of Studio Atelier not only reaffirms their talents and achievements but very openly, they also discuss their practice. How to scale, when was it the right time to ‘bring someone in’, what would that look like, how would they afford it? All the things many a 3 - 4 year practice is likely considering, these guys have done it. An episode for anyone wanting to get to know these talented designers a little better and for any small business wanting to hear how a fellow business owner took those big leaps forward.

Meet Kris Keen, the Perth Architect Adding Real Value to the Local Design Industry.

Discover Landscape Architecture with one of Perth's Leading Designers, Tristan Peirce.

Our climate such that (as mentioned earlier) the way we want to ‘use’ our outdoor space has really transformed and noticeably the design of residential landscapes along with it. Perth now boasts some of the most contemporary designs of the last few years and designs like Tristan’s that really challenge the ‘live well’ aspect of our active spaces.

Episode 4 Season 5 : What does an architect do exactly? a chat with Keen architecture part 1

Kris Keen is an architect who splits his time between Perth & Melbourne. Both Andrea & I have come to build a fantastic relationship with Kris who we both quickly identified with as a person who shares our belief that good design isn’t just for the elite or the entitled. This one was a no-brainer and is already one of our favourites to date. Enjoy.

In conversation with Studio Atelier, one of Perth's leading architectural home designers

After completing 5 years of studying a Masters degree I can understand why many would want to follow on and get registered – but for us personally we’ve found that it hasn’t held us back from any projects we’ve wanted to take on (as our main work is residential).
