Designing homes that feel considered — not overdone
Melbourne architect specialising in residential renovations, extensions, and new builds that balance beauty, function, and sustainability.
Timeless design for the way Melbourne lives
Mark MacInnis Architect creates residential spaces that respond to how people actually use their homes — not just how they look in a photo. From Edwardian renovations in the inner east to contemporary new builds, every project starts with listening.
Based in Oakleigh and working across Melbourne and regional Victoria, the practice specialises in making homes more liveable, more sustainable, and more valuable.

Full architectural documentation from concept through to council permits and builder-ready drawings. Transparent billing at every phase so there are no surprises.
Project Management
On-site oversight during construction to ensure the build matches the drawings. We manage builder communications so your vision is delivered without compromise.
