Michael Bell Architects

Michael Bell Architects Michael Bell established MBA to provide clients with a complete architectual service. MBA practices We are interested in our client’s dreams.

Our client’s vision is always unique; we understand and respect this. We collaborate with our clients to implement their vision through the language of architecture. We represent our client's vision as an architectural solution. To do this, we use creative thought, open collaboration, extensive research, detailed design, and pragmatic planning and administration. Within this framework, our clients

are able to realise their dreams. The diversity of design in our portfolio is as varied as our clients. We engage clients as individuals and each project in our portfolio has a unique story. We are passionate about the community’s interaction with architecture, and the longevity and lifecycle of buildings, which is extended if the architecture is strong. We impose no stylistic intent on our clients. We simply speak architecture. Our clients express their individual style, or company brand, through the architecture we create for them. Our portfolio is our proof of valuable architectural expressions that embody our clients’ visions.

Recently designed project in a rural setting north of Sydney. We like to keep the second floor in the roof space to reduce the impact on the site. This may appear counterintuitive because we also love a big roof!

Wide eaves protect buildings and doors and windows from the heat of the day… especially in the middle of the day when the heat is at its most intense.
This eave in Ho Chi Minh City built while the French were here appears to me to have been inspired by Chinese or Japanese traditions.
An outrigger beam supported by triangulated brackets. The rhythm and depth makes a layered and rigorous composition.

What a fabulous night we had celebrating the 25th anniversary of ! Clients, colleagues, staff and friends joined us at the beautiful showroom in Redfern to eat, drink, listen to some jazz by and be merry!
We thank the always inspiring who toasted our milestone with these words:
“In a world that is ever-changing, Michael’s designs have a way of remaining relevant, beautiful, and enduring. He has a unique ability to capture the essence of classic aesthetics while infusing them with a fresh, modern touch….”
Thank you Thomas, and thank you to everyone who came and helped make the night so special.

Homesteads are integral to a farming operation.
A place for the family to live in the good and hard times.
Set in a garden a homestead provides an oasis for farming families away from the dust and heat or mud and cold of farming. Farming is not a 9-5 job, beholden to weather and the needs of animals crops and machinery farmers often need every bit of the day to ensure their investment of precious resources is realised.
It’s no surprise the best farms have the best homesteads. Checkout Segenhoe in our bio it’s for sale!
