The Studio

interior design firm based in Los Angeles
We work collaboratively with our clients to create soulful places that express the individuality and originality of our clients' tastes and lifestyle. We believe that good design is personal, and we use our craft and expertise to make places that are uplifting, joyful, luxurious and original. Our ultimate aim is to elevate the spirit of the people who inhabit our work and we relentlessly pursue a cohesion of luxury, originality and nature, with an elevated understanding of our clients' taste in every single place we create.
Matt Peterson is an Australian native with more than 20 years experience working with many notable architects and interior designers globally. His breadth of architectural expertise was honed while working on many high profile and awarded projects such as the Lincoln Center redevelopment in New York City with Diller Scofidio + Renfro and the frost museum of science in Miami with Nicholas Grimshaw.
Matt has extensive experience with luxury residential architecture working with Marmol Radziner in Los Angeles and Durbach Block Jaggers in Sydney on many highly awarded residences. Matt's sophisticated eye for interiors led him to practice as the Projects Director at Kelly Wearstler, where he oversaw large-scale hotel and residential interiors, and David Rockwell Group in New York City, where he ran large scale international hospitality projects. Matt currently has architecture and interior projects under construction in Los Angeles, New York and Sydney.
Our Process
Our process is built on four key strengths
Chemistry with our clients
Our relationship with our clients is the cornerstone of our design process.
We work hard to listen to our clients' goals and desires, and using our expertise we elevate those desires beyond their imagination. We believe that our clients are smart, unique and inquisitive and are our most significant collaborators in making places that feel uniquely you.
The union of Architecture and Interior Design
At MPS we are equal parts architect and interior designer. We believe that Architecture and Interior Design can only reach the sublime when one supports the other, hand in hand.
Our Aesthetic Sensibility
A native Australian, our founder Matt Peterson’s aesthetic vision echoes the playfulness and ease of an Australian lifestyle and celebrates the elements of nature --- light, air, space and materiality -- to make places that don't just look good, but that instinctively feel good.
Expertise
Creating great architecture and interiors is a complex and nuanced challenge that requires more than just design skill. It requires leadership, political savvy and cross-disciplinary collaboration. Matt has spent over 20 years working with the most prestigious and iconic global design firms, creating extremely complex and high profile projects. MPS brings that elevated professionalism to every client and project.
Services
Architecture
We are a full service architecture firm. We create original and artful ground up buildings from our client’s earliest notions and usher them to completion. We also re- work existing places with equal imagination and rigor.
Interior Design
We create luxurious interiors that people love to live or work in. We create stand alone interior design projects and complete design services of architecture and interiors. We love collaborating with your interior designer on architectural projects too!
Consulting
We work with other architects, interior designers, and business owners to imagine and complete projects in a variety of commercial and residential contexts. We rarely meet a project or design challenge we aren’t happy to contribute to as meaningfully as we can.
