About

Klaus Carson Studio is a design practice led by Klaus Carson and Nicholas Kelly, driven by the interplay of architecture and atmosphere.

The studio creates work that is both technically resolved and emotionally charged; spaces that endure, and are felt as much as they are seen.

Each commission is approached as both spatial composition and narrative, balancing rigour with imagination, structure with emotion, permanence with personality.

Architecture and atmosphere are inseparable, and this belief underpins everything the studio creates. The work is defined by clarity, material depth and restraint. Spaces are distilled to their essence, designed to heighten daily rituals and resonate over time.

Klaus leads the architectural delivery with precision and discipline. He is registered in NSW and qualified under the Design & Building Practitioners Act 2020 as both a Design Practitioner (Architectural) and Principal Design Practitioner, enabling the studio to work across all building classes, including Class 2 multi-residential developments.

Nicholas builds worlds on a personal scale, shaping narrative, material language and cultural identity to define how a space feels and lives. This approach binds architecture, interiors and experience into a singular, immersive story.

Klaus Carson Studio is a design practice dedicated to elevating the quality and functionality of living and working spaces. By seamlessly blending function with beauty, we create environments that inspire meaningful interactions and enhance everyday experiences. We aim to foster a deep connection between people and their surroundings, crafting spaces that promote well-being and engagement. Specialising in architecture and interior design, our studio employs holistic principles that address every aspect of the built environment. We believe in the transformative power of thoughtful design to shape human interactions and enrich the experience of space.

Design & Conceptualisation

This phase focuses on developing foundational ideas, themes, and design concepts that define the project's vision. From initial concept design to refined styling, it encompasses creating cohesive aesthetics through thoughtful furniture, decor, and visual elements to set the desired tone and atmosphere.

Spatial & Architectural Design

Here, architecture and interior design merge to create both structural elements and optimised interior spaces that prioritise functionality, aesthetics, and user experience. This stage may also include master planning, where broad site layouts are designed to coordinate multiple structures or zones, ensuring a harmonious and well-integrated spatial experience.

Documentation & Implementation

This involves preparing detailed construction documentation, including technical drawings and specifications necessary for building. Contract administration then ensures seamless project execution, managing contracts to maintain compliance and quality throughout the construction process.
