As director and founder of Studio Johnston, Conrad’s track record speaks for itself. His design philosophy is based on people, narrative and place. His aesthetic is a balance of bold design, refined details and earthy material choices. Conrad’s vision integrates the many elements of architecture - light, landscape, form and spatial quality – into a cohesive whole that’s much more than the sum of its parts.

Stefanie is a skilled all-rounder with a speciality in education environments. Working across all studio projects from master planning to private residences, her superpowers are construction details and drawings, and DA documentation.

Out of the studio, Stefanie’s interests include pasta making, painting, lawn bowls and gardening.

An experienced project manager, Kate combines her love of design with a near obsession for organising processes to oversee the everyday operations at Studio Johnston, including contract administration, HR and marketing.

Antoine joined us as a graduate with heritage experience and the Brian Patrick Keirnan Prize Student Award from the AIA. Recent projects include design schematics and documentation for multi-residential projects in Lewisham and South Coogee.

Chris joined Studio Johnston as a student eager for his first taste of practice. His early studies have already opened doors for travel abroad, completing a research trip to Bangladesh and will shortly be travelling to the Philippines. To earn his stripes, Chris has initially focused on our smaller projects within the office and has now started to be exposed to larger multi-res projects. Chris' time outside the office typically gets divided between the great outdoors and an interesting (non-fiction) book

Pat first joined our studio as a graduate. Since returning with commercial and precinct-scale experience from a large city practice, she has found a natural home working on our large multi-residential projects, from Bondi to Macquarie Park and Rockdale. Pat has taught interior architecture, and is a regular on the critique panel at UTS Architecture School. When she is not browsing for mid-century vintage furniture, Pat is developing a palette for orange (or amber) wines.
