formed - sculpted with precision and purpose

mission

opus formed operates with a singular mandate:
to direct and deliver sculptural residences that profoundly shape the lived experience.

foundations

having worked closely for many years to deliver complex residential projects across melbourne, co-founders andrew loucaides and stevie hatz identified an opportunity to provide a more resolved, end-to-end service for clients building exceptional homes.

their complementary skillsets across design and delivery, paired with an unwavering commitment to architectural residences, culminated in the founding of opus formed.

practice

opus formed works alongside architects and designers,
in the pursuit of complex, considered residential work.

intricacy is never avoided; it is sought.
the more the architecture demands in its execution, the stronger the alignment.

every residence is a work of enduring significance,
upheld to the highest of standards.

opus formed accepts only a few projects at a time;
a deliberate limit, so every detail of every residence is personally overseen by its directors.

testimonials

"andrew and stevie care deeply about every single detail. having them personally run our site made the entire build incredibly seamless. you simply cannot fault their standard of work."
‍Private clients, thornbury project

"opus formed curates a completely unified process. from the moment they engaged our studio, stevie and andrew set an uncompromising standard for the project. they didn't just facilitate the design phase; they actively drove the process behind it from a feasibility perspective. now that we are on site, that exact same rigour is translating flawlessly into the physical build."
