Mark Lawler Architects Newcastle

I would like to highly recommend MLA to anyone looking for a professional service from a down to earth team.
I have worked on projects designed by Mark, and Stephen for many years and have always been impressed how they really look after their clients behind the scenes.
Ready all the glowing reviews from happy clients is pleasing, but what they don't know is how dedicated and hard working the team at MLA are behind the scenes.
Keep up the great work guys.

Stephen Coon from MLA designed & managed the construction of our new family home which was completed in 2022. It was a long journey to plan & build a new house but with the support of Stephen & the MLA team, we now have a beautiful light-filled, very comfortable, modern family home. The end result is fantastic and we’re extremely happy. Stephen was easy to deal with, made great suggestions, and listened to our needs.

An excellent team with a commanding knowledge of the building industry, able to incorporate large project efficiencies with small project detailing.

Belinda and I are so pleased we chose Mark Lawler Architects to design our custom build in Speers Point. Stephen and his team were professional and clear in their communication in all aspects of their service from design to documentation through to tender process. Stephen is highly personable and is a talented Architect. Stephen went above and beyond to ensure our development was approved with council which we are very grateful for. Would definitely engage Stephen again for future projects. We certainly will be recommending MLA to family and friends.

I found the service provided by Mark Lawler Architects to be professional, enthusiastic and their knowledge and design skills are impressive. Their attention to detail and documentation ensure a comprehensive design package that can be easily interpreted by any contractor and make it easy to provide a detailed price. As someone who has dealt with a number of architects I would not hesitate to recommend Mark Lawler Architects to anyone looking to build.

Exceptional service and knowledge.
Stephen has been a pleasure to work with and has gone beyond my expectations in all aspects.
The project Stephen has been working on for me is a New Generation Boarding House which has more than its fair share of challenges, none of which have been a problem for Stephen to work through.
I would highly recommend Mark Lawler Architects services and will use them again myself.

We decided to build a bespoke house as our retirement home. We we are delighted with what Mark Lawler Architects have done for us. From the initial contact to completion the level of detail, responsiveness and clarity have been very professional. We wanted something to live in that is unique and we got it. We have gone from initial design to development of the plans and specifications to supervision of construction. At each stage we’ve been a part of the process and always been in control. Thank you Stephen Coon and everyone at MLA for a very special feeling every day.

MLA have looked after us with multiple projects over the years. Stephen is a highly talented architect who has successfully created our desired look and feel each and every time, while constrained by the realities of our budget. Supported by a engaged team, Kate is a gem. Highest recommendation and no, MLA are not our clients.

They listen to clients' needs & design accordingly. We used Stephen and the team for our house renovations design and very inmpresed with the end result.

We found the team to be transparent and clear communicators. The unique bespoke design was practical and really aesthetically pleasing. The team are friendly and accommodating and we would highly recommend them.

This is our second project with Stephen and I have been most impressed with the detail and accuracy of he's drawings. Combined with he's development knowledge Stephen has successfully maximised the sites to create the highest and best yield for the projects. I have throughlly enjoyed the process, overcoming the inherent challenges with the Mark Lawler team and Stephen, they have provided great value to their service for my development company.

It's easy to see why so many people are choosing Mark Lawler Architects for their house designs. They've designed quite a variety of buildings compared to what one might expect. Mark and Stephen were personally recommended and speaking to them helped me understand much better what goes into creating an award winning home.

Mark designed us a beautiful house and was meticulous in every stage of the management of the project.
Thanks to his efforts we are very happy with our new home.

Stephen was very helpful throughout the design phase of our renovations. He displayed great determination when dealing with the local council to ensure our plans were approved. Our building project is now underway and we have the professional services of MLA's to thank!

Stephen was a great help to us in our home project, ensuring that the entire process from development to final completion ran smoothly.
