Matt Gibson A+D is rapidly growing a reputation as one of Melbourne’s best young design practices featuring regularly in local and international design publications. MGA+D’s work has been included in exhibitions and is regularly shortlisted for awards. Matt Gibson A+D has won a number of awards including the national award for Best Emerging Practice in 2005 from the Design Institute of Australia. The practice’s first 3 residential projects, were noted by the judging panel for the “consistent elegance in each project submitted…all were well detailed and conscious of space and light. The results demonstrate a maturity and a highly developed ability to combine old and new.” MGA+D maintains a continuing commitment to ecologically sustainable design practices.

Philosophically the practice aims to engage with issues of culture and habitat through rigorous interrogation and a belief in design as a means of addressing both spatial and programmatic concerns within a wider historical and social context. MGA+D is interested in architectural spaces that address the primal experiential nature in people, through basic attractions to light, material and patterns of movement. The spaces are concerned with formally consistent compositions of volumes & elements where interior and exterior are conceived as an integrated idea. This involves a commitment and close attention to the detailing of scale, surface, threshold and junction and the rigorous exploration of the zones between what has come before and what is new.

Matt Gibson A+D has worked predominantly on residential projects, but contains a portfolio consisting of varying scopes and sizes from restaurant & hotel projects to retail & commercial office fitting out. MGA+D’s Collingwood office is made up of a group of talented architects & designers ever expanding to meet the need of the larger scale projects it acquires.
