Ekberg Architecture Pty Ltd was founded in 1986 and our Organization has established a reputation for delivering buildings designed with skill and appropriate innovation. Our schemes arise from close client collaboration and sophisticated responses to contexts and functions.

The practice is an acknowledged leader in solving complex problems for notable clients in relation to the adaptation or restoration of historic buildings.However, our skills are equally focused on design-led new build projects. Our designs do not simply copy what exists; they add to contexts intelligently. New buildings must reflect the process of history, but also be of their time, re-energising contexts by creating a fresh sense of engagement. Our designs convey a distinct and meaningful sense of architectural continuity; a presence that draws on both historic precedent and change.
