Architecture is more than just a plan or how a building looks from the outside. It’s about how a space makes you feel when you inhabit it, considering light, air, movement, gathering and comfort. Thoughtfully addressing these elements is what makes a space wonderful to live in, that is what we do.

Studio Kaaki is an Architecture and Interiors firm, founded by Kristian Kaufmehl and Caroline Kite. Our projects span between Sydney and the Snowy Mountains.

We create spaces that are joyful, beautiful and enduring. Our work is grounded in the belief that well-made spaces should last, and that architecture is an investment for life.

Each of our projects is a specific response to site and our clients’ needs and aspirations. We are not driven by fashion or a signature aesthetic. Our architectural design process is iterative, combining sketching and physical models with advanced 3D modelling to refine our client’s brief. This embeds our clients in the process, ensuring they understand the architecture and have ownership of the design.

Our team has a love of being on site and pride ourselves on our deep knowledge of construction. We know how to collaborate with builders and craftspeople, ensuring the quality of the build and giving our clients transparency and ease in the process.

We advocate for good design, through our work and through our involvement in industry. Each project we create demonstrates to our clients how architecture can transform their lives for good.
