Information

We are a design-led architectural practice based in Ventry, near Dingle, County Kerry.
Established in 2024 by Luke Matone — a registered architect and member of the Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland — our work focuses on creating enduring site specific spaces that quietly enrich everyday life.
With over a decade of experience in award winning architectural practices across the UK and Switzerland, Luke brings a collaborative, sustainability-focused approach, grounded in a deep respect for place. His work aims to be both poetic and purposeful — drawing on Ireland’s cultural and environmental richness and blending contemporary design with vernacular forms, local materials and craftsmanship.
Luke Matone, Founder
BA (Hons), M.Arch, PG.Dip, MRIAI Registered Architect
Luke studied architecture at Kingston University (RIBA Part I), London Metropolitan University (RIBA Part II) and the University of Westminster (RIBA Part III). He trained as an architect in the offices of Christ & Gantenbein (2012-2013) and Herzog & de Meuron (2013-2014) in Basel Switzerland, and later with Tuckey Design Studio (2014), Casey Fierro (2016) and Morris+Company (2017-2023) in London UK.
Born in Bristol, he has been living in Ventry, Dingle, Co. Kerry, Ireland since 2023, establishing his practice in 2024.
Luke is a registered architect in Ireland and member of the Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland (RIAI).
Services
We provide a competitive, comprehensive, and personal service, following a well-structured process in line with RIAI guidelines — no jargon, just good architecture.
We offer a range of appointments and agreements — from hourly consultations, to involvement at specific stages, to managing a project from first sketch to final sign-off.
We’re also building a trusted network of consultants for any planning or construction reports and can flag what’s likely to be needed early in the process.
And — if your project is within 10km of Ventry, I’ll cycle to site visits whenever possible. It’s a small way to cut carbon emissions… and a great excuse to enjoy the view!
Additional Specialist Services
Building Condition Reports
Building Control Certification (BCAR)
Physical modelling & CGI
