About us
Baumgart Clark Architects was founded in 2013 by John A. Clark and Marcus Baumgart to provide architectural design and consulting services for selected clients. The practice has permanent studios in Melbourne and Canberra and a base in Sydney. We work throughout the states of New South Wales and Victoria, and specialise in regional work.
Our method
Our methodology and approach are summarised by the line: “Listen first, draw later.” We always acknowledge that despite our deep expertise with design, our building’s and interior’s users are the ultimate authority on their own needs and aspirations.
Our role is to manage risk on behalf of our clients, and analyse and translate their needs. We impart physical form, giving shape to the ideas that we develop together. Committing to ‘listening first’ means that we avoid bringing preconceived ideas to our projects - every design engagement is approached from first principles, regardless of the typology. This is how we craft enduring and sustainable architecture and interiors for our clients.
