We are delighted to welcome architecture and interior designer Kate Roach to our Melbourne studio as Principal.

Kate brings extensive International and local experience to the practice with a focus on crafted residential, hotel and hospitality environments.

Drawing inspiration from her global portfolio and projects, Kate has created outstanding spaces for leading clients that blend elegance, innovation and function. She brings a passion for design and an unwavering commitment to client service excellence.

Prior to joining Warren and Mahoney, Kate served as an Associate Partner with Foster and Partners in London, where she contributed to numerous iconic projects in both interior design and architecture.

With a specific focus on hospitality and hotel design, and crafted muti-residential developments and private residences, she has garnered accolades and recognition for award-winning projects across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia.

As Principal and part of the interior design leadership team, Kate will now play a pivotal role in shaping the firm's integrated approach to design, which combines leading architectural, interior and urban designers.

Kate says: "I am truly excited to join Warren and Mahoney, as a design practice renowned for its design excellence and commitment to innovation. Throughout my career, I have been driven by a simple yet refined aesthetic. I believe in creating spaces that enhance the lives of those who experience them. I’m particularly looking forward to working, once again, with a team to enable me to take on ambitious and progressive projects".

Kate will be working in close collaboration with fellow Melbourne-based Principal, Nick Deans, who has been championing Warren and Mahoney's residential projects across Australasia for almost a decade.

"Kate is a remarkable talent whose passion for design is contagious," says Nick. "Her extensive experience in both interior design and architecture, coupled with her international exposure, makes her an invaluable asset to Warren and Mahoney. Importantly, she also brings strong leadership skills having managed large projects and teams”.
