Powering Easy Access to Top Design Talent Network

Founded in 2021, CO-architecture gives homeowners Australia-wide access to an extensive architecture and interior design talent network across multiple expertise. This forward-thinking approach ensures clients benefit from a personalised experience that enhances their project’s outcome.



Bringing a dream architecture or interior design project to life is complex, as is finding the right people to trust with an ambitious vision.

Since 2021, CO-architecture has simplified this process for individual clients as Australia’s leading architecture and design network, featuring 700-plus design firms alongside 7000-plus independent professionals.

From new builds and home renovations to landscaping and interior design, CO-architecture’s dedicated directory streamlines how clients identify and hire the best designers for the job.

This simple process sees clients create a project description through a simple app form. Then, precise algorithms match the brief with relevant professionals who submit detailed proposals for quick and easy review.

As private clients and industry professionals gravitate towards increasingly agile workflows, CO-architecture makes planning and beginning a project faster and more efficient.

Supported by a rapidly growing network of architects, interior designers, landscape architects, draftspersons and more, clients are able to access extraordinary talent across multiple design fields. 

“Finding the ideal architect or interior designer is challenging for homeowners with limited experience.

By gaining access to on-demand talent through CO-architecture, these clients can quickly understand their options and select the perfect candidate,” co-founder Kevin Mitchem said.

Trusted by many of the biggest names in Australian architecture, the platform is home to hundreds of leading firms, including Woods Bagot, Hassell, Watson Young, K.P.D.O. and Ian Bennett Design Studio.

No matter the style, vision or values required, connecting with a reliable expert to lead or contribute to a project is remarkably simple. 

Both firms and independent contractors listed on CO-architecture create comprehensive, highly visual profiles that capture what makes their practice special.

Key insights about each organisation, including featured projects, services provided, team members and contact information, are readily available to individual clients in this single location. 

Then, built-in chat features make starting a conversation with potential collaborators effortless. Whether direct messaging a company or reviewing an impressive proposal on a project post, determining whether a candidate is the right fit for the role is easy.

Personalised, coordinated and intuitive, CO-architecture facilitates hassle-free communication between clients and talent.

CO-architecture also provides a striking feed of design inspiration through its discovery board.

Here, architects and interior designers share outstanding photography and renders of their most recent projects, helping the community stay in touch with the latest design trends while sparking creative ideas that enhance future projects. 

Founded by experienced architect Kevin Mitchem, marketer Wade Smith and designer Luke Hallaways, CO-architecture overcomes fluctuating industry demand while embracing remote collaboration.

By making the top architecture and design talent more accessible, homeowners are empowered to tackle projects big and small alongside top-notch talent, irrespective of location. 

“For clients, CO-architecture is simply about providing access to the best architecture and design talent across Australia,” Mitchem said.

“Across any aesthetic or scale, our vast network of emerging and expert talent makes it that much easier for homeowners to design and build their dream project.”
