MMAR

Our projects draw on a sensitivity to our everyday surroundings such as materials, quality of light, and attention to details which feed back into our designs that compliment and work in harmony with their surroundings.

Our design methodology involves learning about the local environment, culture and traditions and utilising this knowledge to achieve timeless designs.

Through this approach We aim to create innovative architecture that enhances the wellbeing of users by creating an environment and space that will continue to be enjoyed over time.

MMAR offers a wide range of design solutions, from large-scale architecture to small-scale furniture and other products.
We apply a sensibility of traditional and contemporary Japanese aesthetics and construction methods, together with design skills, knowledge and experience gained in the UK, to provide unique research and design capabilities for each individual project.
