Brief
We start by listening: how you live or work, your budget, your timing, and what the site allows.
Architecture and interiors studio, London, Edinburgh, Melbourne
Buildings and interiorsdesigned to be lived in.
Homes, schools and cultural buildings, designed and seen through by the same small team from the first sketch to the day you move in.
The studio
We design buildings and interiors that are calm to use, honest about their materials, and made to last.
Meridian was founded in London in 2014 and now works from studios in London, Edinburgh and Melbourne. We take on a small number of projects at a time, from private houses to schools and cultural buildings, and the same partners lead each one from the first meeting to the day it opens.

What we design
FourDisciplines
One studio for the building, the rooms inside it and the ground around it, so every part is designed together and drawn by the same hands.
- 01
Architecture
New buildings, extensions and restorations, from feasibility through planning to completion on site.
- Houses
- Schools
- Cultural buildings
- 02
Interiors
Interiors drawn alongside the building: layout, joinery, lighting, furniture and finishes as one piece.
- Residential
- Workplace
- Hospitality
- 03
Landscape
Gardens, courtyards and public spaces planned with the building, so inside and outside work as one place.
