Stafford is a boutique architecture studio specialising in unique luxury-living experiences with international appeal.

Process

We believe that every design journey is uniquely personal. We collaborate closely with our clients, and together, create truly iconic and memorable homes and hotels that work in perfect harmony with site and context.

The results are luxurious and bespoke architectural statements that leave a proud legacy with significant uplift. Our passion is to create iconic designs that add true generational value to our clients’ projects, while also leaving a meaningful narrative for the communities in which we live and work.

Nothing worth having comes easy, which is why every project is a true labour of love.

Ethos

Nothing worth having comes easy, which is why every project is a true labour of love. Driven by passion and fuelled by an innate desire to get things right as we turn our clients’ dreams into stunning realities.

We believe that we’re only as good as our last job. That’s why to us, it’s not done – until it’s perfect.

History

Our story began creating prestige hotels. Today we’re renowned for bringing resort-living inspiration to high-end projects, from luxury single-dwelling homes, multi-res apartments to hotels and hospitality.

With a global reputation forged in prestige design, we bring the same high-end sensibilities to residential and boutique multi-res projects all over the world.

We’re a spirited young team, who together with a prominent mentor lead an unrivalled legacy of close industry contacts and relationships.

Partners & Recognition

Forged over many decades, partnerships are vital to our success. From the bonds we share with our clients, to the partnerships we foster with agents, councils and within our own team, we respect the views and ideas of others and are proud to work with those who help us realise our projects. We share in each other’s successes.
