Michael is the creative force, catalyst, and editor behind our work, working closely with Project Managers and Designers to gain exceptional results. Each of his projects reflect the client’s qualities. He draws inspiration from location, site, and context — quickly immersing himself in generating strong ideas and cultivating sophisticated concepts with his team. While designing the architecture within, Michael’s attention turns to creating relevant, compelling stories in all the spaces.

The objectives for Michael’s designs are simple — to create timeless, flexible interiors. To him, enduring design begins with a beautiful framework that accommodates future adjustments without creating waste. Clients love Michael’s design expertise, gentle, open-minded approach, and prudent budget management. Most significantly, they trust him completely to make their projects better.

Michael provides excellent value to his clients, drawing on his extensive travels, global connections, and experience working with the finest materials and vendors. Architects who partner with him respect how he enhances their work through his architectural sensibilities and sense of proportion to his intuitive understanding of how a space should be composed. By staying true to a project’s architecture, Michael can contrast or enhance it with visual or physical experiences, such as lighting, greenery, and indoor/outdoor living.
