Meet the team
Based in Shenton Park, CSA Craig Steere Architects is an architecture and interior design practice working with clients across metropolitan Perth. Since 1994, we have helped our clients create homes that feel distinctly their own, from new home design to thoughtful renovations, additions and alterations. Our process is personal and collaborative. We take the time to listen, understand how you want to live and shape a considered design around you. We also bring this approach to interior design and selected commercial projects.
Planning a new home, renovation or addition in Perth? Get in touch to discuss what your site, brief and ideas could become.

Favourite quote: “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.” Steve Jobs
My design philosophy in 3 words: Simple | Considered | Refined
Good architecture to me means… Observing problems, limitations and constraints and seeing the opportunities within these and working with them to create meaningful journeys and experiences.
My approach to design is… To interpret the clients brief in conjunction with the analysis of site and context to create carefully considered architectural responses that are not only successful aesthetically but also functionally.
In the future I see myself… Passing my knowledge and design sensibility onto my children and the greater community.
